Is the syntax difference really that interesting? It's

    mole -local 127.0.0.1:3306 -remote 127.0.0.1:3306 -server example@172.12.0.100

vs

    ssh -L 3306:127.0.0.1:3306 example@172.12.0.100

With the extra installation of mole on top.

I was going to comment on the whole persona thing he started but it’s to early in the morning for such things
