As far as I can tell, ChrootDirectory does not allow per-user chrooting
to "empty jails" (e.g. home directories) such as this bug's patch does
(and modern FTP servers). So from my perspective this bug isn't
resolved. Should it be reopened, or should I submit a new bug/feature
request?

Thanks.

No, ChrootDirectory can be set per-user using the sshd_config(5) Match
option and may be used to chroot users into empty jails for sftp use.

Yes, but since the directory has to be owned by root, then users can't
write to their home directory, correct?
