Or better yet, use ssh keys with a passphrase, and load them into
ssh-agent (i.e. ssh-add). Then you'll only have to type the passphrase
once, when your X session starts (or whenever you start ssh-agent, if
your xsession doesn't start it for you). And as a bonus, it's actually
fairly secure. And "ssh -AX" is just plain friggin' cool ;)
