What do people think about introducing a variable so that users can
choose whether auto-reverting remote files should be attempted?

That would at least help to find out whether the "Tramp barfs on
reentrant calls" functionality works ;-)  Also, if it works, then it
seems that the worst that can happen is that an error is signaled
during auto-revert.  Then maybe the next auto-revert is successful.

I doubt that option is worth offering--it must cause annoying delays.

I for instance use tramp mainly to work on files located in the same
LAN (100mbit), so I don't think that it would cause to much delays.

that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough
space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So seize
this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will read.
