Yes, I agree completely. I want to be able to treat my inventory as the
canonical source of all connection information.
I'm the someone who was working on an ansible-ssh that executes ssh with
the same command-line arguments that ansible would use. It works, but to
be really useful it needs the functionality provided by PR #11908 to be
able to construct a ProxyCommand.

I'll put ansible-ssh in a repository on Github sometime. If I haven't
said anything in a couple of days in this thread, please remind me by
private mail.
