Well, if the code to be executed remotely is long running, I do not want
to assume the connection to last during the full execution of that code.
Hence, I am interested in sending code to a running tmux session.

One possibility is to have tmux attached from withing emacs' term.  This
might not work too well, unfortunately.  For instance, ess is currently
not able to talk properly to an R session running inside tmux inside
term (which is why I've given up on that idea for now).
