if we have no better ideas, with UI shamelessly stolen from Quest PuTTY.
Off by default, which effectively reverts the change to using the local
username by default that came in with GSSAPI support in r8138. Anyone wanting
seamless single sign-on will need to set the new option. (The previous
default behaviour was getting in the way in ad-hoc scenarios.)
Note that the PSCP and Unix-Plink behaviour of using the local username by
default have remained unchanged throughout; they are not affected by the new
option. Not sure if that's the Right Thing.

strings more rigorously, and then we look up the local X authority
data in .Xauthority _ourself_ rather than delegating to an external
xauth program. This is (negligibly) more efficient on Unix, assuming
I haven't got it wrong in some subtle way, but its major benefit is
that we can now support X authority lookups on Windows as well
provided the user points us at an appropriate X authority file in
the standard format. A new Windows-specific config option has been
added for this purpose.

on received data. Experiment and suggestion suggest that the character set
configuration applies equally to keystrokes sent to the server, or at least
that that's close enough to being true that we should document it as a first
approximation.

to manually tweak the host name and port number under which the SSH
host key is read and written.
I've put it in the cross-platform Connection panel. Partly under the
flimsy pretext that other backends _can_ use it if they so wish (and
in fact it overrides the host name for title-bar purposes in all
network backends, though it has no other effect in anything but
SSH); but mostly because the SSH panel was too full already :-)

advertise so that the server can't exceed our maximum packet size.
Enable it for "1.36_sshlib GlobalSCAPE" which apparently sends oversize
packets otherwise.

know how I'd go about retrieving money from them any more because my
last exchange transaction went through a company who subsequently
turned out to be dodgy; and a user points out that e-gold is in
legal trouble, which suggests that avoiding it is probably wise.
