Still trying to figure out what's really going on inside Tramp.
Something I bumped into along the way (still doesn't quite explain it) is:
(let ((non-essential t)) (file-name-nondirectory "/sudo:")) -> "sudo:"
(let ((non-essential nil)) (file-name-nondirectory "/sudo:")) -> ""
I think it's wrong for those two to return different values.
`non-essential' should prevent connecting to the remote host, but here
neither operation needs to contact the remote host. And of course,
things are made worse because it's not only `non-essential' that
controls the behavior but also `last-input-event' which makes debugging
that much more .... interesting.
