>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-1010
>             Project: Guacamole
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: guacamole

> guacamole already has lots of options available to everyone who can 
> create/edit connection profiles - in particular "device redirection".
> This enables organizations who want to restrict things to do so - but only if 
> they remove the option for end-users to create new connections. ie orgs have 
> to go complete "nanny state" mode and remove all versatility from users.
> How about if you enabled an "admin only" mode where options could be disabled 
> globally within guacd.conf, and then only accounts with full admin privs 
> could even see them? Then when other users with "create" access go to 
> create/edit a connector, those options don't even show up - thereby stopping 
> them from using them. I think the sections named "Remote Desktop Gateway", 
> "Device Redirection", "Preconnection PDU / Hyper-V", "CONCURRENCY LIMITS", 
> "LOAD BALANCING", "GUACAMOLE PROXY PARAMETERS", "Screen Recording" and "SFTP" 
> all should be disable-able. That would allow orgs to allow individuals the 
> flexibility of being able to create their own connectors, but restrict their 
> options to a level the org is comfortable with - and with those areas not 
> even showing up to the end-user, it would improve ease of use (you have to 
> know quite a bit for most of those options to even make sense).
> Also, clipboard itself should really be a "device redirection" option too. I 
> think clipboard in a connection profile should able to be configured as 
> bidirectional (browser<=>server), or browser=>server only (server<=>server 
> should always be allowed)
>  
> Thanks for listening!
