To clarify, if you've sshd (heh) from A to B to C to D, and want to transfer a
file from D back to your workstation (A), when you can do so directly,
without first storing it on B and C (a lot of typing).
I'm in plenty of situations where firewalls prevent A from directly connecting
to D, and vice versa.

That's an added bonus, which is kind of nice if you're using pre-generated
one-time passwords. This will save you one of them.
