Heck, I don't even know how to "pause/suspend" another user space. My
home automation software keeps running and responding to external
events just fine when its user space is switched into the background
(and that rotating cube effect is so cool!)

On a recommendation, I have had some success using the statement

tell application "myApp" of machine "eppc://myMachine.local"

but it seems to bring up a password request dialog sometimes, which is
not desired. It's not clear yet whether adding the password to the
keychain fixes that in all cases. Wisdom appreciated.

Out of curiosity, how do you "pause/suspend" a user?
