Tramp implements primitive Lisp functions like `write-region' for the
remote host case. All these functions work synchronously, so does
Tramp's implementation.

One could try to write a new function, which saves a file
asynchronously, and which is bound to C-x C-s. However, this would raise
other problems, like race conditions in accessing the not completely
saved file.
