I suppose a limited form of that wouldn't be too hard to implement, if
necessary.
I don't think we should go in that direction. If the user wants to
program how to handle an emacsclient request in various circumstances,
it is much cleaner to write the program in Lisp, rather than in
arguments to a shell command.
I think that is more appropriate anyway, because the preference for
what to do is more likely to vary from user to user than from caller
to caller.
Is there some reason why this CANNOT be done in Emacs?
