RE: Proposition of reviving multi method

[peter.wagemans]

Disadvantage of the tramp-default-proxies-alist construction is that
it doesn't take into account that there may be more than one route to
an account on a host. For instance, the route may depend on where you
are.  Also, one route may be to log in directly into an application
account, an alternate route may be to log in to a personal account and
do su/sudo (or similar) from there to the application account.

With multi-hop you can specify which route you want to use to get
there in each case.
