Objet: [pve-devel] Suggestion for Spice Client Settings 

Have been working on tweaking proxmox for my coworkers, who are used 
to using vmware (workstation and vsphere) or VirtualBox. 

They like proxmox a lot - the web interface is regarded as very 
convenient and the spice client impresses a lot, much better than 
vmware's offering. 

But there a few things that can be set which make things a lot easier 
for them, that they are used to seeing in other VM managers. 

- Add the VM Name to the spice client title. Currently we just have 
the VMId and our devs/support, who run up multiple VM's find that 
confusing to manage. 

- Set the Secure-Attention (Short cut for Ctrl-Ald-Del). hotkey to 
Ctrl-Alt-Ins. This requires remote-viewer 0.5.8 to work (not released 
yet) but causes no harm to earlier versions of it. 

- Set the toggle-fullscreen hot key. SHift-F11 seems to be a common shortcut. 

These can all be set in the spiceproxy file. I've altered our perl 
source to do, it would be really great if there could be something 
like this in the next official release: 

Qemu.pm: 

1399 # LWM 
1400 my $conf = PVE::QemuServer::load_config($vmid, $node); 
1401 
1402 return { 
1403 'secure-attention' => "Ctrl+Alt+Ins", 
1404 'toggle-fullscreen' => "Shift+F11", 
1405 'release-cursor' => "Ctrl+Alt+R", 
1406 title => "VM $vmid - $conf->{'name'}", 
1407 type => 'spice', 
1408 #title => "VM $vmid", 
1409 host => $proxyticket, # this break tls hostname 
verification, so we need to use 'host-subject' 
1410 proxy => "http://$proxy:3128", 
1411 'tls-port' => $port, 
1412 'host-subject' => $subject, 
1413 ca => $cacert, 
1414 password => $ticket, 
1415 'delete-this-file' => 1, 
1416 }; 
1417 }}); 


I'd be happy to setup a dev env and submit patches if that helps. 

Thanks,
