I've been using something similar for a while now. I use pam_jail on freebsd to drop the ankle biters using common ssh login attempts like test, ubuntu, oracle etc into a FreeBSD jail where I watch what the do and get a copy of all their tools. I rate limit the outgoing traffic from that jail to something painfully slow to prevent them from causing any major issues. But being able to fire up 'watch' on freebsd and snoop the tty they are on in the jail is awesome for forensics.

It's secure, they can't break out of the jail.

It's rate limited to prevent them causing much damage to anyone.

It's easy to observe every thing they type and do in the jail from the host.
