If you have a shell account on the target machine nothing prevents you running
an sshd of your own there, listening on an atypical port number (eg 2222).
Then set up your ssh config at home to aim at port 2222:
	Host the-target-host
	  Port	2222
Then
	ssh -v the-target-host
as normal!

No, some people have a brain.  It really is possible to spell words correctly
and construct coherent sentences without mental crutches in software.
