On my todo list there is also writing tramp-theme.el. Something, which
makes it obvious that you are editing a remote file, or not. Even more
important: you are editing a file as root, or not.

This could fall into the category of enabling-disabling the theme more
often than just at the start of your session.

Best regards, Michael.
