+Remote seeks are applied using an mpv IPC transaction: seek event delivery is
+disabled for this IPC connection, an exact absolute seek is sent, and the
+client waits for mpv's `playback-restart` completion event before restoring
+seek event delivery. A command reply can arrive before the seek effects, so it

+still restored if the operation fails. This prevents a remote seek from being
