Hmm, wondering if we should expose the top-level /version API endpoint [0]
for such things, as that uses only "compiled"-in constants when returning,
so would be a bit cheaper.

I mean, this can be switched at any time, so it probably just doesn't really
matter for now..

OTOH, your approach actually might be superior, as one gets the node-specific
info for the whole remote, not just the version for the node one connects too.
