That would be nice, but when the buffer is displayed, Emacs is waiting
for multiple choice prompt, so the user can't really click anything.

Hm...  perhaps that could be fixed by avoiding the multiple choice
prompt, and making that buffer into its own major mode with keys bound
to what are now choice items?

That is, instead of saying "Continue connecting? ([a]lways, [n]o)" etc
via that mechanism, it would just `message' that line and bind the `a'
(etc) key to the appropriate action?

It would require quite a bit of rewriting to go from "modal" interaction
to "mode based" interaction, though.
