Set tramp-verbose to 10. In case of an error or quit, it shall trigger a
backtrace in the Tramp debug buffer. It's undocumented in the Tramp
manual; maybe I shall give it an entry.

Don't know, I don't use session lists. See, whether you find something
useful in the backtrace. If it doesn't help, I could try to debug,
provided you could give me a recipe how to reproduce.
