Hello,
If I understand you correctly then the command screen is what you're looking
for. It's not directly integrated into you ssh-session or anything but it
does give you as many terminals as you want within the same ssh-session.
really short userguide for screen:
* login
* run "screen" to create a new screen if you don't have one
run "screen -ls" to list existing screens
run "screen -r" to re-attach to an existing screen
run "man screen" for the manual page
* use "Ctrl+a c" to Create a new terminal
use "Ctrl+a n" to switch to the Next terminal
use "Ctrl+a d" to Detach from your screen (you can re-attach at next login)
use "Ctrl+a ?" to get help (somewhat messy)
Pros:
* you can close down the ssh-session without killing the screen
* you can have as many screens as you like and as many windows in a screen as
you like
* you can login from a different place and continue working were you left off
* you're un-affected by network problems or even a reboot of you client
machine
Cons:
* screen needs to be installed (comes with every linux dist I know though)
* it can be confusing if you have to many screens ;-)
sorry if this wasn't what you were looking for,
Peter

I use PuTTY all the time, in Windows and to get a duplicate session,
you click the top-left icon in the window (I forget what this is
actually called) and select 'duplicate session'.
Yes, that is true - but in PUTTY you have to input credentials
(username/password) and on the server new sshd will be forked for you - but
in F-Secure ypu simply get independend shell without need to log in.

Hello,
I use comercial SSH client called F-Secure SSH client and putty. One of
the best feature od F-Secure is the ability do duplicate (better
multiplexing) ssh session. In F-Secure if you are logged in and click
"New Terminal Window" you will get another terminal (without suppling
credentials). From server point of view it looks like this:
