Because (a) I wasn't aware of it and (b) only the JOSM implementation of 
remote control implements it.

I don't actually need to get any data back anyway, so I'm not even sure 
that I need a callback. I just need to know if the connection worked. I 
think XHR can do that but I have no idea how because I've never used it 
directly - I've always used a high level wrapper of some sort.
