That's really cool. I never found it necessary to do this. I'm a little bit liberal in regards to security local, so I wouldn't want that to transfer to a server accidentally. I just deal with it and get out when I am not using it.

FWIW though - he explicitly sets up a Match rule for the servers he cares about doing this to so he oughtn't end up accidentally doing any transferring unless his Match backfires.
I used to have a script name ".ase" (meaning "as someone else") that I'd source when I was doing something for someone else, and had become root. I was very careful to make sure it just had safe aliases there.
