I think Stefan offered a better explanation than I did.
My attempt had the flaw (not the only one, mind you) that
I mixed in personal preferences, so it possibly turned
out more sarcastic than intended.

I wasn't seriously proposing to use that as a replacement for
collab editing: my aim was rather to understand the issues and
perhaps learn a bit more about collaborative editing itself.

Actually, having had the time to do some homework, I found:
- Rudel: a collaborative editing environment for Emacs.
It's even on Elpa and has a page on Emacswiki [1]
It seems to be based on the Gobby protocol
- there's someone (github [2], alas) implementing the Etherpad
protocol for Emacs
Embarrasment of riches, it seems ;-)
Cheers
