The reporter API should support Deferreds, but twisted.trial.remote doesn't do anything.  I don't see any reason not to delete it (it should have been deleted when all its functionality was removed).

Be careful about letting that branch get too big or too old.  The smaller it is, the easier it will be to review and merge into trunk.  The younger it is, the less the chance it will conflict with other changes.
