This reminds me of an Instagram tool I used to use, ec2-ssh

My biggest headache with most tools (like the article) is that they don't easily support cross-account roles. This leaves me using a combination of the awscli and jq.

I don't make much use of cross-account roles so I haven't added this yet. If you're interested in making a pull request describing how this could be changed to fit in to your workflow, I can look at adding it.

Done!

Thanks! 0.6 now supports cross-account roles (available on pip). 0.7 will support MFA.
