Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by tracing how Warp handles SSH connections and remote shell startup, then compare the requested bash extensions or connection alias with existing jumphost behavior. Done should be defined as a supported way to use Warp's SSH features after connecting through a jumphost.

Describe the solution you'd like?
I regularly have to ssh to a jumphost to then ssh to other remote hosts (with an ssh key that exists on the jumphost server)

It would be really nice when i ssh to the jump host that i could have the ssh wrapper support on the remote host. Ether by a set of bash extensions i install on the remote host or by dropping in an alias as part of bringing up the ssh connection to the ssh jump host.

In the past ive used iterm2 extensions on remote hosts (see https://iterm2.com/documentation-shell-integration.html ) to enable some of the iterm2 options on remote hosts. something similar would be nice for jumphost usage
