Thanks. And in case you want to support different command arguments per
host, you might think about connection-local variables.

Of course, and I did. But a menue is more convenient. 'C-h m' returns:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
key             binding
---             -------

TAB		forward-button
ESC		Prefix Command
SPC		scroll-up-command
-		negative-argument
0 .. 9		digit-argument
<		beginning-of-buffer
>		end-of-buffer
?		describe-mode
R		disk-usage-toggle-recursive
S		tabulated-list-sort
^		disk-usage-up
d		disk-usage-dired-at-point
e		disk-usage-eshell-at-point
f		disk-usage-toggle-full-path
g		revert-buffer
h		disk-usage-toggle-human-readable
m		disk-usage-mark
n		next-line
p		previous-line
q		quit-window
u		disk-usage-unmark
x		disk-usage-delete-marked-files
DEL		scroll-down-command
S-SPC		scroll-down-command
<S-return>	disk-usage-find-file-at-point
<backspace>	disk-usage-up
<backtab>	backward-button
<follow-link>	mouse-face
<mouse-2>	mouse-select-window
  (that binding is currently shadowed by another mode)
<remap>		Prefix Command

C-M-i		backward-button
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

A longer list than needed; the relevant keys must be found.

Ahh, and applying 'e' (disk-usage-eshell-at-point) returns

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
eshell-mode: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
