Now how can we be sure that there aren't more issues they know about but we don't? Very poor handling by the OpenSSH folks... :-(

I'm not sure that I understand your reasoning. They DID release the details of the exploit and made a very public announcement so that people had a chance to prepare. I my mind, this increases my trust in the openssh/bsd developers.
