that's really nice... but how on earth is anybody supposed to figure
out that's possible?   both what bits you need to install and how
to get it set up.  I don't know if this has any applicability to
people who will eventually be Moblin "customers", many of whom
I expect will have no active knowledge of what ssh even is... but
I wonder if there's some way to get this kind of sharing functionality
set up a little less manually?
