Do not underestimate me in the ways of the force. In particular, do not underestimate using a tab based session manager like RemoteNG, on my Windows laptop, to multiplex RDP and SSH sessions to all the hosts I need to access at a particular moment. That avoids having to use the virtual machine's console, and keeps the clipboard handling on the local display environment through the SSH and RDP sessions. > If Coherence ever get going in Spice, a lot of that will go away. > Probably not the Clipboard issues though. See above.
