FreeRDP with 647 open issues[2]? Not released and so much bugs does not
conform to Debian standards of quality and stability.

Conclusion: 

Remmina 1.1.x is 
 * currently not maintained by upstream.
 * in a heavy bug status

Remmina 1.2.x 
 * depends on not released packages
 * has to much bugs.

Both versions are IMHO not in a status to get a release candidate for
the next Debian stable release.
