It took a while, but finally I have applied the patch, modified. The
customer option is called `enable-remote-dir-locals'. When set to `t',
remote .dir-locals files are evaluated as well. And I've fixed an error
of the patch in the logic of the condition.

I hope it is still useful for you.

Best regards, Michael.

It looks like hack-dir-local-variables ignores .dir-locals.el for remote
files. I think if a project depends on .dir-locals.el it will not be
remotely editable without loading .dir-locals.el. I wonder if this could
be improved. Thanks.
