Correct. It's not part of OpenSSH itself but it's a contributed
application. AFAIK there are two different versions, x11-ssh-askpass
and gnome-ssh-askpass while ssh.com has it's own version.

gnome-ssh-askpass is in the OpenSSH sources in the contrib subdirectory.

You will find x11-ssh-askpass at
http://www.jmknoble.cx/software/x11-ssh-askpass/

Both are not that helpful when running under Cygwin without X11.
