sample of ssh-list

i believe this feature maybe useful to be added. Below is the details. 
It would be really helpful to the community and also ssh users. 

Enable a command similar to 'ssh-keygen' representing 'ssh-list' to list out the hosts within the config file. This would help command line users to get the list of hosts directly as a view. 

I understand this can be achieved via alias on SHELL terminals, but it would be a nice feature to be added directly coming from ssh itself. 

I have attached a screenshot in which i have created alias to help me with that.

I don't think this is something that needs to live in OpenSSH itself, it's easy enough to do with grep in a shell-script, sorry.
