So with HTTP requests you can see the domain name in the header and forward it to the correct host. That was never a thing you could do with SSH, does this allow that to work?

But that wasn't really a thing that was an issue with SSH.

Host *.internal.example.com

  ProxyCommand ssh -q -W %h:%p hop.internal.example.com
in the SSH client config would make everything in that domain hop over that hop server. It's one extra connection - but with everything correctly configured that should be barely noticeable. Auth is also proxied through.

I'm aware of proxy jump and other client side config but I'd rather that not every single client need to do this configuration.
