I've prepared a first version of a patch (still missing documentation),
see appended. The changes are:

- `signal-process' is capable now to signal remote processes. This is
  triggered when either the PROCESS object has the property `remote-pid'
  (set by Tramp), or the PROCESS is just a number, and the additional
  optional parameter REMOTE is a remote file name.

- There is a new user option `proced-remote-directory', which defaults
  to "/sudo::". When `proced-send-signal' or `proced-renice' are invoked
  with a prefix arg ("C-u k" or "C-u r" in the *Proced* buffer), the
  respective signal is sent with the credentials as identified by this
  user option.

Comments?

Best regards, Michael.
