OK, this is *almost* what I needed. I really want a way to say *don't multihop when it's localhost*, so I can have a fallback rule that uses
`.+' as the pattern for the hostname.  Any chance of that one?

What about

    (add-to-list 'tramp-default-proxies-alist
                 '("\\`localhost\\'" nil nil))

as first rule in `tramp-default-proxies-alist'?


Unfortunately, that won't match because TRAMP seems to use the result of

  $ hostname

as the default. So as a result, I'd need to code up that particular customization so it can happen on a per-machine basis. I can certainly do that, but this seems like a common enough scenario that it should be supported directly through the customize interface. For example, if the first element of the proxy tuple was "" perhaps that would match localhost in whatever form it is expressed?
