Sure, but you wrote: "Tramp must know where the output to be parsed
starts in the buffer".  And I suggested that you arrange for that
_starting point_ to be given by the Lisp function 'point', not
'process-mark'.

OK, but earlier you said that the process _had_ arrived in Tramp's
buffer (though this arrival was triggered by jsonrpc.el) but that Tramp
couldn't be made aware of it.  You wrote yesterday:

>>> It wasn't lost. The process output was retrieved and placed into the
>>> Tramp buffer, w/o Tramp's interaction.

Can you confirm that you no longer believe this to be the case?

So maybe one should disable it by default.  How does one disable it? I
have trouble understanding from tramp-use-ssh-controlmaster-options and
tramp-ssh-controlmaster-options.

So the problem is now that the shell prompt didn't arrive after all,
because of controlmaster, not because of jsonrpc.el.  Can you confirm
this?
