Thanks.

Already done by today's commits to the trunk.  The function is called
is_slow_fs, and returns non-zero if its argument resides on a
filesystem deemed slow.

I'm not sure this is what you want for file-remote-p.  Perhaps you
only want files on remote (a.k.a. networked) filesystems.  There's
code to do that as well (in w32.c:logon_network_drive), so if you
want, I can make it a separate routine.
