Mmmmm, not sure that it's enough to lift that restriction.  I'm
guessing such a move comes with consequences we may not be ready for.

Another solution could be a proxy that acts as a client to two servers
and thereby synchronises them.  Sounds a bit complex, though, if the
same functionality can be easily built into monotone itself.

Cheers,
