Is this something you would like to see in Fedora soon?
No. I prefer a lot to use rsync, because scp:
- has no dry-run mode - is not incremental - follows symlinks when used with the -r option - has too few options: no --chown --chgrp
Do you have something against this?
No: users should be free to continue using it (but not with the -r option IMO).
Is your use case missing?
With scp no, but I use sshfs for years. This is IMO something to promote.
Ex: Example: a simple 3-way copy, assuming you have root SSH access (with keys)
mkdir /mnt/hostA sshfs -o transform_symlinks root@hostA:/ /mnt/hostA rsync -a --delete /mnt/hostA/etc/skel/ root@hostB:/etc/skel
