Describe the feature request
A mode of the SSH check that would only check for a valid SSH connection banner. It's an upgrade from a plain TCP check but lighter weight than a full SSH check as done today.
An example of a borked OpenSSH server that passes a TCP check:
... After which the connection terminates.
An example of a functioning OpenSSH server:
... After which the connection terminates.
Why do you personally want this feature to be implemented?
While the current SSH check does allow checking an SSH endpoint it has limitations that I'd love to overcome:

Additional information
The banner check is just the first idea I was able to confirm in a real scenario. If someone knows a bit more of the protocol then perhaps there's more quick wins a bit deeper. But, then again a quick "does the server send any banner after TCP open would already be a big improvement.
