Good point, a great benefit I'd forgotten to mention.
You can even set up the keys and ssh agent on your station so you can be
lazy about your password/key phrase if you like, but still have a nice
and strong authentication scheme.
One of the nicest things, from ease of setup, is that it's client side,
you just have your ssh client set up to take calls on the local machine
at certain ports and forward them, so that a call to localhost:<mysql
port> is directed over the ssh client and broadcast to that machine.

1: Forward the connection over ssh, so you benefit from good encryption.
This also stops the need to publish the mysql port to the world.
