Hi Thomas,

> What is the advantage of this patch over just removing the JUST-THIS-ONE argument? In both cases tramp is triggering accept-process-output for processes it does not own.

It touches only processes which share the same connection via ssh
ControlMaster (and putty share). Nothing else.

You have seen the timing? I'll change the timeout of
accept-process-output to 0. This should prevent blocking.

In my book, one shall touch only data one is related to. Processes, not
related to the same Tramp connection, are taboo.

Best regards, Michael.
