Did something similar with iTerm changing both the background colour and setting a badge which effectively visually watermarks my terminal session with the host name of the machine I'm connected to.

Having ssh in a wrapper was a no-go for me, since I have a lot (~50) of servers configured in .ssh/config.

Also my autocomplete broke when I made it an alias, so that's why I was looking for different solutions.
