The problem I have here is you can't troubleshoot/fix issues with your server using the clientside RC. If your server crashes, or experiences any sort of delay, it makes using the clientside RC a huge pain to get anything done. At the moment, I wouldn't use the client RC for anything more than a chat window.

You mean if you cannot connect to your server on player you wouldn't be able to use rc on it? That would be a good point and maybe it can be expanded to allow it, not sure on it's limitations really.

The fact that every server experiences a decent amount of lag is enough for me to never use client RC as a developers tool. I don't like interruptions, and as Cubical said, disconnections play a big role in that as well. I don't wanna write a few lines of code only to have it erased due to a disconnect.

Not to mention... reconnects and client reboots.
