Modulu the fact that every language has xml-rpc, seems like a
little-brainer to 

a. define a protocol
b. define an implementation above xml-rpc which does just that.

Of course, you have to assume things like vi will have to be changed
quite a bit to do that. Wait. No. I changed my mind. vi could probably
be changed to support such a library in a weekend. By that time, EMACS
will have about 5 modes which support it, of course.
