Some parameters, such as the username/password for VNC or RDP, are better
entered manually within the client when connecting rather than stored on the
server in MySQL or {{user-mapping.xml}}.
Storing secure data within parameters on the server side has security
implications that don't fit well with all use cases.
Further, some connections would benefit if their settings can be modified
locally before connecting. A user could change the color depth or screen size
of their RDP session, for example, for the sake of a slower connection.
