3) I see a connection to a domain controller, I want to connect to that session
with a separate domain admin account. I'd like to be able to enter credentials.
{quote}
This would require prompting to be implemented.

4) I see a connection to a switch. I want to connect to that session with
separate network admin credentials.

Presumably this is either SSH or Telnet, which already implement prompting
within the Guacamole terminal.

5) I see a connection to a server, I want to connect to that session with
separate server admin credentials.

For SSH or Telnet, this should work okay - for RDP or VNC, you'll need to wait
for prompting to be implemented.

> 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.
