First of all, I believe the ssh protocol (not necessarily the ssh
program) already support exactly what you want: logging in and, if you
want, sending files through the already opened tunnel.
PuTTY does exactly that. If you are logged in, you can press a button to
open a (local) file browser for the remote files. Without new password
entering. So I guess it uses the same tunnel.
So here's your first solution: use putty. It exists for Linux also.
Second solution: if the ssh protocol supports what you want but the ssh
program does not, then complain to whoever maintains ssh (program) to
include that option. For example, a hotkey to switch it into sftp mode
in the already open connection.
More solutions (sshfs, or just giving up and typing several commands)
have already been posted here.
