not only that, but wouldn't this be a contradiction to his plan? if you
wanted to keep telnet around, but had to add security macros, those macros
would need to be implemented on the client side, as well. therefore, these
users would have to go with this new "super telnet" instead of the old
vanilla telnet, when they could have just gone with SSH in the first place.
