I think it SHOULD be implemented. Most of the arguments against implementing something like this, usually come from SysAdmins or Unix users, who already have this, and are familiar with setting it up. Windows users, and non system admins, are unlikely to even know what SSH is, or where to get it from, let alone setting it up. Personally the UltraVNC stream plugin is looking like a good candidate for getting a SSH plugin....
