Tatham I presume.
Which means I'm sure you got this, but I should clarify anyways that I did 
mean to say telnetd not telnet above, and so I was describing a server 
daemon not a client.
So the question could just as well go to openssh or whoever maintains the 
stock linux telnetd, or the mit kerberos telnetd.
I suppose a graduating scheme like this could be implimented client-side in 
putty too.
