Edit a file using ssh on a remote host with tramp. consult-buffer works smoothly as long as the remote host is up.

If the remote host goes down, the situation changes. As soon as consult-buffer tries to preview the remote buffer emacs hangs.
This happens a lot when changing buffers.

Granted, this is also a tramp problem, but perhaps things could be done in consult buffer to alleviate the situation, by detecting that the remote host is down and not trying to preview it in that case.
