That is already the case. Tramp uses a (slightly modified version) of
the progress reporter. You'll see two invocations of it, "Opening
connection ..." and "Waiting for prompts ...". They are cascaded. When
the second, inner progress reporter finishes, ssh has returned the prompt.

One modification of Tramp is, that in case of cascaded progress reportes
only the outer one is visible in the echo area.

Best regards, Michael.
