Yes, I thought a while whether I should make it a defcustom.
Unfortunately, it is kind of risky to change it, and it could stop Tramp
proper work if set poorly. That's why I made it a defconst only, in
order not to encourage people to change it if not absolutely necessary.

What do people think? Should it be a defcustom?
