socat - exec:'bash -li',pty,stderr,ctty -> bash: no job control in this shell

What options should I use to get fully fledged shell as I get with ssh/sshd?

I want be able to connect the shell to everything socat can handle (socks5, udp, openssl), but also to have a nice shell which correctly interprets all keys, various Ctrl+C/Ctrl+Z and jobs control.
