No, I do want to save it when exiting - but without being queried by
Emacs about it.
So '(setq buffer-save-without-query t)' looks like the right thing to do
for me, but I'm not quite sure how to address the right emacsclient
instance / the right buffer with an external call to emacsclient. At
least what I tried (see original message) has no effect.
