[X2go-dev] Wishlist: x2gofeatures query before session start

[Mike Gabriel]

Hi there,

Here is a feature request proposal for the post-Baikal release (Rebun):

The handshake on session start should be extended in the following way:

   o login as user
   o call a script x2gofeatures (or similar)
   o this script replies with some file format that states
      - user may / must not start an X2go session
      - user may / must not start in rootless/desktop mode
      - available commands to execute (KDE, TERMINAL, /usr/bin/xterm...)
      - user may / must not print
      - user may / must not use audio
      - ...
    o the client should obey to this returned list of features
    o if the user tries to hack some feature that he/she is not allowed to
      use, the server of course also has to deny this feature (and maybe even
      the whole session)

Greets,
Mike
