Fine with me. It should not be a single tool though, I don't think.  I
would say it needs to be a fully-thought-out UI for the whole task,
which will probably include client side, server side, some gdm
changes, etc. - if we think of it as a "vnc viewer" we'll end up with
something you can only figure out if you read a bunch of docs, rather
than something that just works. Need to think of it as a holistic
"desktop remoting" feature.
