FWIW, I have never yet encountered a case, where having the emacs server
started and EDITOR set to "emacsclient" failed in the local case.
That said, skimming through the with-editor's code, it seems to try real
hard to find a correct emacsclient (even "remacsclient" for remacs!) It
even seems to start the emacs server if it is not already the case. So
I agree that it could be declared "broken" installations.
