We have a proposed method in the community RFB protocol specification that TigerVNC hosts. Unfortunately I don't think many VNC implementations have been updated to follow it. Even TigerVNC still needs to be fixed to follow that. If you want to you can add bug entries for it, but I don't think anyone is actively working on this right now. PS.
