Most setup password-less keys for that.

But I patched OpenSSH client in May to allow a user to set a password in
their ssh configuration.

See http://marc.info/?l=secure-shell&m=117995272708037&w=2

It is useful if you don't have control of the server itself.

Anyone have thoughts on this?

I have been using it since May.
