Using the sm method, when I type my password incorrectly, rcp.el fails
to identify this as the problem.
Instead of finding the error (as ange-ftp does) and displaying it in
the minibuffer, rcp.el times out and says "Couldn't find remote shell
prompt."
This difference in behavior is especially annoying when it comes to
name completion.
Since we're looking for bugs, I thought I'd report this usability
problem.
