Right.  Since this isn't a hard requirement for Kubed (as most features
don't require Tramp integration), I prefer to check for this new support
in kubed-tramp-enable and degrade gracefully if an older Tramp version
is found.  It sounds like I'll be able to check for it with:

  (when (version< tramp-version "2.8.1.4")
    ;; No arg expansion for `tramp-login-program', use fallback.
    ...)

No problem at all, and many thanks,
