+Note on spice: Spice handles multihead just fine.  But it can't do
+multiseat.  For tablet events the event source is sent to the spice
+agent.  But qemu can't figure it, so it can't do input routing.
+Fixing this needs a new or extended input interface between
+libspice-server and qemu.  For keyboard events it is even worse:  The
+event source isn't included in the spice protocol, so the wire
+protocol must be extended to support this.
