thanks for the tip. i didn't know you could get a new version of a
builtin like that.
up until now at least, with c-f in ido, it turns off ido, so i use
nothing special for tramp. ido doesn't know tramp or v-v.
would be interesting to have a setup, either ido or vertico, in which
pretty much everything works.
