It is a bit more complex, because for remote editing it is not easy to
establish connection in different NAP, cross firewalls, and so on. And
as I said before, we don't have resources to provide a server service
for this that runs "our" CRTD server.

Withing the same network it still requires a sort of local service to
solve the conflicts. And that also needs to be implemented...
