But we have to accept that Norbert has the right to decide himself
what to do in his spare time.

Apart from the fact that most people refuse to accept such a feature,
I don't see any benefit for TeX Live or TeX users.

Furthermore, I'm sure that any extra network traffic causes extra
trouble with poor internet connections, firewalls, etc.

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.
