Actually, to tell you the truth, I am not so sure of the "VM should support"
argument. We work in an open software environment where different
components have to be put together to get the job done.
Emacs is our preferred front-end, and we would like to do everything from
Emacs if at all possible. But when it is not possible to do so, we should
feel free to venture outside Emacs. It would be "good" if VM can support
SSH, but it is not necessary that it "should".
Cheers,
Uday
