Goldstein Lyor commented on SSHD-408:
-------------------------------------

Perhaps, but if the majority of the clients use v3 what good would it do ? If 
you look at the [SFTP 
wiki|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSH_File_Transfer_Protocol#History_and_development]
 then it states ```After a seven-year hiatus, in 2013 an attempt was made to 
restart work on SFTP using the version 3 draft as the baseline```. From this I 
infer that the versions > 3 did not become popular. Anyway, I am not against it 
- I am just asking whether the development effort is cost-effective - after 
all, it would introduce more code, more potential bugs, etc. ? Has anyone 
specifically asked for it and gave a good justification ?

> Implement sftp v4, v5 and v6
