Thank you - have done so.

In the meantime, I've created a bash script that remembers the 
most-recently-used port, and then uses the next one. So, it rotates 
around them - so you can call it and open multiple terminals or after a 
crash, without having to manually remember which ports might already be 
in use.

Use it as a wrapper around mosh. Call it with all the same parameters as 
mosh, except for --port. Edit the configuration at the top to choose 
your port range.

Get it from here:
