It allows re-connection to an SSH session after you are dropped from what I understand. This is for people who are on cell connections/spotty internet.

  That was the idea, but it needs server support and the server side was never implemented in OpenSSH.

      The roaming thing occurs post negotiation, so the connection is already fully encrypted.
