I have the same problem. I trust you are familar with ssh -Y for X11
forwarding. Makes things a lot less painful when its allowed.


 Doesn't work terribly well on a laptop connected via a 3G data connection.


Ouch! 

 The X connection needs several orders more magnitude to be useful.


 
 That said, I usually prefer synchronizing the projects to the local
 machine, using something like 'unison'.
 
 When working with DSL, my ssh/vim editing is indistinguishable from local,
 where a forwarded X11 connection is painful.

I see. I prefer the forwarding solution because emacs in an xterm is not as
nice.
