Yes and no. You can connect to hosts with SSHd listening on a
different host by adding the according entry to your ~/.ssh/config.
But this is rather a workaround than a fix.

Correct.

Cool!
On you https://github.com/intelligenia/mssh you declare this to be
version 1.2.1. Do you intend to continue development of mssh in
general?
As you may know, Bradley maintained mssh upstream as well as in Debian
and hence maintaining the Debian package would have meant maintaining
the upstream which code -- which I don't feel capable of. But if mssh
has a proper upstream maintainer again, I'd also maintain or
co-maintain its Debian package. (Cc'ing the "O: mssh" bug report for
adding this information.)
P.S.: I also have a copy of Brad's old Git repository, so if you want
to import it to have the whole history, I can help. (Just have to
check where my local copy is as git.debian.org/anonscm.debian.org is
currently down due to hard disk issues.
