I tend to delete such non-FAQs immediately. The reason is simple: if you
browse the FAQ page (not using the search function), it is very hard to
read such multiline questions. FAQ's should be short (the question at
least, the answer can be as long as necessary).

It has started as every other FAQ entry. So my guess is that many people
really use ssh (especially users of berlios.de ;)).
