ipython/ipython — Issue #1004: QTConsole with --ssh option and kernel interrupt

In current master branch, when using a remote kernel, accessed via the `--ssh` option of `ipython qtconsole`. There is no way to interrupt a python call, either with CTRL+C either with the "Kernel" menu. In both case, the following message appears :

`Kernel process is either remote or unspecified. Cannot interrupt`.

By digging on this tracker, this seems to be the "normal" behavior when someone tries to send an interrupt/restart order to a remote kernel.

what are the sticking points related to this "feature"?
Is there any plans to fix this issue?

BTW, thanks for all the work done so far.
