Your answer may be, this is for a developer and they'll be aware of all the short comings/gotchas but this ends up being a rather user-hostile interface. People are never as aware of short comings/gotchas as we'd like them to be. If there was no other way for a developer to do this, I'd be more inclined to find a way to support this but it's just a matter of writing a script or if you really need a short cut, you can do it with standard gnome short cuts or write a very simple vnc client based on gvncviewer (we're talking a dozen lines of added code) to do this for you.


vncviewer based displays may work now, but they are inefficient and will likely fall apart if/when we have 3D support.

If it's chromium based (which I suspect it will be), you could certainly tunnel it via vnc.

I'd much rather see a real GUI client, perhaps implemented by scripting QObjects or QMP.

I'm with you 100% here. I'd rather see our focus put into a proper gui based on QMP than to tack on features to SDL.
