Good :-).  Stubborn as I am, I already made an environment patch that 
does what I suggested.  Works like a charm, in principle, but after 
switching back & forth between tracks (using the remote commands) a 
couple of times, Logic completely freaks out, and the track selection 
keeps running up and down, as if you kept pushing up & down arrow 
keys very fast (looks like some kind of feedback, which is 
impossible).  Total lock of the machine, and a hard reboot is the 
only way out.  Extremely strange, as there's no reason it should do 
this -- esp. since it works alright for the first few times you use 
the remote commands.
When using on-screen pushbuttons to emulate the remote keys being 
pressed there's also no problem.  This just doesn't make sense at all.

Sigh...  it *could* have been quite a nice solution.  After resetting 
the computer at least 5 times in the past 30 minutes, I think I'd 
better go do something less nerve-wrecking, and give it another try 
later...
