Alex an I have discussed your feature request. Due to the huge amount of features implemented in the past, x2goclient has grown big and this way we are planning a rewrite of the client. This means that the accepted patch would only live until this new release and the whole work is lost. The new client is planned to be capable to show remote sessions embedded inside the client window.
Please be aware that you can control x2goclient perfectly by command line options. So this means it is possible to cover own ideas by using the x2goclients hidden mode and key authentication.
I really understand that x2go can bee seen as nx replacement, but this is not the projects "main focus".
If you have questions about how x2goclient can be controlled by command line options, please try x2goclient --help.
Though we don't think we will accept such a patch at the moment, we've recognized your idea as a feature request and will discuss it again by time.
Such a thing as requested (X2Go client UI that looks like NX client)
can easily be implemented with python-x2go. You just need a little bit
of Python knowledge and a bit of knowledge in GUI programming
(python-qt, python-gtk, pyside, wxPython). All the hard stuff that
relates to X2Go session handling that is its client API implementation
is covered up by Python X2GO (the underlying python module of
pyhoca-gui and pyhoca-cli).
If any one is brave enough to start such a new project (an X2Go client
that looks and behaves like NX client), I am happy to give support
with the python-x2go integration into your GUI project.
I am also thinking of approaching such a project myself, but currently
there are too many other (paid) projects that need my focus.
Greets, Mike
