Add CSOM support for connected WebParts
At the moment it does not seem possible to create WebPart connections via the Client Side Object Model.

This is an absolute necessity for keeping as close to OOTB as possible for many users. This would help facilitate a migration of components from a test site to a production site.

While traditional "connected" web parts appear to be on their way out, there are still some scenarios where setting up web part connections is very valid for creating a solution in SharePoint (not beside SharePoint ala the App/Add-In model approach).
I suggest you create the ability to connect web parts via the remote provisioning approach (CSOM) so that we can continue to build automated/scripted deployments of solutions, without having to manually wire up web parts.
