I don't really feell it is possible... It goes a little bit outside
the perimeter of sshd here. You should look more on the system side, a
tool such as SELinux may be able to enforce this kind of possible.

(i don't think it is possible but i'm far from being 100% here, if
somebody disagree with me, please do write it :) )
