HAProxy for RDP client distribution?

Hello, I have a rather special problem to solve and would like to ask you if haproxy could solve it. We need to access a windows application through RDP which does *not* support running under terminal services. So, on the local side, we have set up several identical Windows XP Pro VMs with

My Scalable Architecture using HAProxy
