That bug report has to do with local connections, which don't work for
the reasons outlined there and above. Embedded connections are
entirely different beasts and I assure you they work well in any
environment including terminal.

What do you mean with "it did not work"?

A> I agree that embedded is still good even with this limitation

Especially because it doesn't have this limitation. ;-)
