You know, I never realized SSH had the concept of “certificates” at all. I
just read that part of the ssh-keygen(1) man page
<https://manpages.debian.org/1/ssh-keygen.1.en.html> for the first time.

According to the above, SSH certs have options to impose all kinds of
(SSH-specific) restrictions on their usage: what command you can use,
whether you can forward X11 or other ports etc.
