Mitogen leaks local host information to remote host #581

Description

@polski-g

While running ansible using mitogen as the strategy_plugin, if you look at the process listing on the remote host (ps auxw) you can see the connecting host username and connecting host name in the process list.

Assuming your local username is LUSER and local host name is LHOST, you would see the following in the remote host process listing:

ps auxw|grep mitogen
root 17053 ... 0:01 /usr/bin/python(mitogen:LUSER@LHOST:29900)

Can this information be obfuscated in some way?
