What I'd really prefer is that forwarding proxies (including ssh)
implement support for the extended connection handshake, which allows
the client to ask to be treated as non-local:

But since ssh is to a first-order approximation the only forwarding X
proxy anybody uses, we might as well special case it here too.
I suppose we could implement that in app/xfwp as an example, but I have no idea
if anyone would notice or still uses it. (I'm in the process of removing all
the X.Org proxying programs from Solaris in favor of ssh tunneling, since I
agree that it's all we've seen anyone use in years.)
