Great, at least we've got that.

The new architecture still is a bit weird in that it deletes all RandR modes but
the one that was detected on the remote (i.e., client-side) screens, so changing
the resolution within the session itself won't be possible.

This shouldn't be a huge problem in general since resizing is still possible in
windowed mode and irrelevant in whole display or fullscreen modes.


Other than that, be aware that the new version still has other unresolved bugs,
which include a huge memory footprint within nxproxy (server/client mode),
slowdowns for no apparent reason (though only one user so far has reproduced
this), random application crashes for software that uses a lot of X resources
(e.g., Firefox/Pale Moon, Audacity, KDE Plasma, fvwm2, ...) and sudden
connection drops (which may be related to the previous slowdowns and have so far
only been experienced by one user).
