Thanks, I'll try and see what I can come up with.

I hesitated to do that, and am still hesitating.  It might be useful for
the Tramp handler, but for your case I don't think it would help,
because your unquote operation is a black box (at least, you'd rather
treat it like that), so your requote operation should basically be
"generic".
