Why is this "wishlist"? Without a fix for this, everybody that needs to use a VNC server over a tunnel is out of luck and very insecure if they want to use LightDM's server. And that's a shame because it would be so convenient to set it once and let LightDM take care of all of the rest of the gory details.
>> LightDM already does the same thing with "Port"; make sure multiple instances are allowed
Port Specifies the port number that sshd(8) listens on. The default
is 22. Multiple options of this type are permitted. See also ListenAddress.
>>> so add ListenAddress, allowing multiple instances
ListenAddress Specifies the local addresses sshd(8) should listen on. The fol-
lowing forms may be used:
If port is not specified, sshd will listen on the address and all
prior Port options specified. The default is to listen on all
local addresses. Multiple ListenAddress options are permitted. Additionally, any Port options must precede this option for non-
port qualified addresses.
