Like I said, if I knew that this was something that I was going to want,
then I would have had it already.
What I'm proposing here is that Emacs should have this functionality by
default, so that anybody can use it when they discover that they need
it.
When they discover the need, it's too late to switch it on, because you
can't talk to an Emacs remotely by default, if you get my drift.
