Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe
https://mosh.org/ is 🔥 and makes latency disappear. It's a replacement to the SSH command (however it uses SSH as transit) that enables remote terminal applications to roam switching between networks, and supports intermittent connectivity (no more SSH disconnects if working on a eurorail train), provides intelligent local echo and line editing of user keystrokes.
In short it is amazing and rn it's not possible afaik to make it work on Gitpod afaik due to lack of UDP tunneling.
Describe the behavior you'd like
Improve SSH DX for people who use command line.
Make folks in #7489 happy
