Unfortunately?  I could not live w/o it ;-)

If using IO redirections or pipes, be sure to quote them correctly:

   [localu...@host1 ~]$ ssh r...@host2 remotecmd > /tmp/file

will create /tmp/file with the output of remotecmd on host1 (!), while

   [localu...@host1 ~]$ ssh r...@host2 remotecmd ">" /tmp/file

will create /tmp/file on host2.
