Hi all, 

Reading this discussion, I ask myself if this feature could also serve as the
technical base for another interesting feature: 

Switch from local access to remote access and back while keeping all
applications running. The local screen optionally (depending on the use case)
does not show a copy of the remote screen, but e.g. a lock screen to not
compromise information to anone having a look at the machine's physical screen.

When kwin would be able to stream the contents of a desktop that is not
currently shown on any physical screen (vitual desktop) _and_ the physical
screen is showing something else at the same time, the local screen could also
show the lock screen?

It is already possible to move windows of running applications from virtual
desktop to another with out the need to restart the app. So it would also be
possible to move all open windows from the machine's local screen to a remote
screen without restart?

For some usecases like "remote support" or "present the screen during a
conference" one would like to see same content locally and remote (or parts of
it like only one virtual desktop).

A different usecase "operating a machine sometimes locally and sometimes from
remote" without having the content of the screen exposed to anyoune coming
along while the machine is operated from remote would be a great benefit. E.g.
when accessing your office machine from home office / remote via VPN without
the need to reboot / restart the applications like it is neccessary with X11.

What do you think?
