It almost works, but there is one subtle difference with unix ssh. Under unix, even though the ssh subprocess has both standard input and standard output redirected, when it is time to prompt the user for the ssh password, unix ssh opens a connection to /dev/tty so that the password prompt and input still comes from the command-line. That is either not possible, or not implemented, in plink. The work-around, I suppose, is to only use the ssh:// method on windows if you have a certificate set up so that no password prompt is required. But that seem like a bummer.
