Agent forwarding (the other way around)

A number of posts here appear to be asking about SSH-Agent authentication  
 from dbclient on one machine to an ssh server (eg: openssh) on another  
machine.  I'm wondering about the other direction.  Is there, or will  
there be, support for an ssl client (I'm using openssl) being able to use  
SSH-Agent auth forwarding to a dbserver?  (If this feature already exists,  
I'm having trouble finding documentation.)

Dropbear server works very well with the openssh ssl client, including  
tunnels.  Now I'm hoping I can use SSH-Agent auth so that I can use ssl to  
access my dbserver system in some automated scripts.

Thanks very much,
