Wow, this seems like an enormous can of worms. Do you have a
centralized server or a peer-to-peer architecture? Discovery.
Authentication. Security. Session management. Server farms.
Distributed transactions. Failover. Recovery. Cross-platform. Buzzword
bingo.

I'm not saying that it can't be done, but it moves the Vim codebase in
a direction that it's never gone before.

Is there some existing open source project that can be leveraged to
solve a lot of these problems? Or some Google project?
