The core issue you're trying to solve is what happens when a single
connection requires two password prompts to answer. That can happen for a
variety of reasons.

But if two prompts are possible, so are three and four. For example, one
reason to have two prompts is if you need to use the ssh Proxy option (the
-P option to ssh) to tunnel through one host to reach a second. But if two
hops proxy is possible, so are 15.

So, rather than accept a patch that allows SSH to handle *two* prompts, I'd
rather have an option in place handling any number of prompts.

Something along the lines of a single option *that I can give multiple
times* that says "answer this prompt with this password".

I hope what I had in mind was clearer.
