it is still quite far from automatic.
As you know, there are two separate problems there:
1) giving  the right permissions to the users;
2) installing sshd as a service.

Regarding 2), I saw at least one GPL-ed program that happily
installs and manages itself as a service, etc, namely WinVNC
(see http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/)
It most probably could be used as a code sample to build
such a thing for sshd.
 
Could be a nice project for a student, or for someone with a knowledge of
Win32 registry programming...
