Doesn't support the following:

    Forwarding of X11, SSH agent, etc.
    IPv6, with roaming between v4 and v6
    Android client

The x-forwarding is what kills me. Still waiting for it though.

View on HN

JuiceSSH (probably the most popular Android SSH client) supports mosh fully.

Does it support any sort of port forwarding, not just X11?

Mosh is a client/server setup allowing kind of asynchronous interactive session on a ssh server over a ssh connection. It doesn't replace ssh but complements it, making ssh interactive sessions more usable for low-latency and failing connections.

It somehow works like a proxy, with the added feature that it tries to add some sort of advanced local echo.

No, MOSH is purely for interactive terminals.
