%host variable when using SSH tunnel (behavior request)

[expired user #7360]'s profile image [expired user #7360] posted 8 years ago in Feature discussion Permalink

When creating a backup .sql file using a remote SSH tunnel, if I use the %host variable to help auto-name my file, the host is always "127.0.0.1" because that's where my SSH tunnel was created. Is it possible to have a %session variable that can use the saved session name or maybe change the behavior of %host to use the SSH server name when using an SSH connection?

Thank you for this great program, Ansgar!

Yes, sounds reasonable. Will check that.
