Yes, you could certainly write an extension that polls whatever remote
system(s) you are connecting to - Hyper-V, Windows RDP, etc. - for
disconnected sessions and lists those out.

Yes, space could be an issue - but you don't necessarily have to do
Thumbnails, you could just list them in a separate tree structure. I'm
also not sure that Thumbnails would work reliably - you'd probably
just end up with the lock screen.

I don't know that you'd have to install qwinsta - my guess is that
there are other ways to get the information. Guacamole also does some
caching of data retrieved via the REST API, so you'd probably be
covered for caching.
