I'm wondering if multi monitor support for RDP (and maybe even VNC?) is on 
Guacamole's roadmap?
{quote}

The short answer is that this JIRA _is_ the roadmap.

To check whether something is on the Guacamole's roadmap, take a quick search 
through currently-open issues in JIRA. If something you're looking for isn't 
present, then the next step is to create an issue requesting that feature, as 
you have just done.

I've found a ticket on the old Jira where a developer suggested it may be a 
trivial fix that involves adding a few flags and then the ticket went quite in 
2015.

I doubt that this will be as trivial as implied by that suggestion. Few 
features boil down to, simply, mapping things to FreeRDP flags. I haven't 
looked into the level of support within the FreeRDP library, but my main worry 
would be in how Guacamole should expose those multiple displays to the user.

For multi-monitor support to work well, users would need to be able to:

# Interact with the large, multi-monitor remote desktop despite having only one 
local monitor.
# Interact with the multi-monitor remote desktop spanning their local 
multi-monitor setup.

How the above could be achieved is not immediately clear.

> Thank you
