[Spam] Any plans implement MaxAuthTriesLog?

I'll rephrase my question...

When a user gets their password wrong more than MaxAuthTries times why
isn't the message "Too many authentication failures for %.100s"
written
to syslog? The user seems to get it (in a dialog in putty) but it
doesn't get logged. The usual "Failed password for..." messages
are
logged.

Hello there,

I've just upgraded to 3.9p1 and I notice that I'm not getting any
"Too
many authorization failure" messages written to my syslog.

This seems to be controlled by MaxAuthTriesLog in Sun's implementation
of SSH. Are there any plans to do the same in OpenSSH?

Regards,
Richard Dickens
