But ssh is not free, so rcp.el must be able to work with rsh (and this
must be the default) if it is to be distributed with Emacs, says Richard.
I'm not arguing this point. I'm arguing the usefulness of being able to use
*both* rsh and ssh at the same time via /s: and /r:

Greg has posted a bug report where setting rcp-auto-save-directory to
some local directory didn't help -- rcp.el would infloop when trying

Hm. Does scp fall back on rcp in the same way that ssh falls back on
rsh?
If so, you're probably right.
No, because:

I found the bug where end-of-file was being signalled. For an
rcp-send-command, the corresponding rcp-wait-for-output was missing.
This seems to be a problem with the current implementation: if the
rcp-wait-for-output is missing, you don't (easily) see what's wrong.
It took me _quite_ some time
Well, I think that offering an rsync connect method is waving a dead
chicken (is that the right term?) since most transfers are done to
empty files, so the rsync mechanism doesn't really come into play.
(Well, saving might be faster using rsync, I haven't investigated
