Ok, thank you for the pointer. :-)
I'll listen that through when I find a suitable time.

My first thought would of course be to define protocol extensions on
case-by-case basis: mixer controls, playback controls, etc, and allow
only one client to subscribe to an interface at a time, per seat.
Anything outside of those would be server configuration for misc
hotkeys. But I guess these were already raised in the talks, so I
really better listen to those first.

Thanks,
