We can of course do both. From an implementation point of view, they
would both fall under "selective output in plain text" which various
people have been meaning to do, and I think one is no harder than the
other. On the other hand I doubt that there is an efficiency advantage
to using tramp, it is is more fragile (for example it depends on the
remote shell prompt).
