The purpose of the state-heuristic was to avoid contacting the remote
repository when the user had not requested explicitly the operation
(e.g. computing the file status for the mode-line), or the operation
could be carried locally (e.g. "cvs diff <file>" which uses the
CVS/Base/<file> copy).

I.e. not a question of performance, really, more one of making it work
when disconnected.
