In fact, I have been looking at them in the past, when I could not understand what was going on with some bad connections.  So I'd like to be able to have a look in case of problems.  In fact, I have not done that for a long time by now.

By the way, would it make sense to put a limit on the number of lines in a debug Tramp buffer?
