I'm not sure I understand this problem either: are you complaining that
the client hangs when the server goes away?

If you reboot the server forcefully, it may not gracefully close the
connection and the client may stick around until TCP times out
(potentially a very long time). You can mitigate this by ensuring that
the server terminates the sshd processes gracefully (SIGINT or SIGTERM)
or by setting a ServerAliveInterval and ServerAliveCountMax in your
client config.

Either way, this is not a problem in OpenSSH.
