I want to make remote support possble for a guest system that has only a local network connection to the host and has a graphical console running where the operator works on. (So "real" VNC is not available to the rest of the world) It would also be okay if a switching between the VNC and the SDL/VGA would be possible at runtime so that the remote support can do the work and then switch back to the operators screen.
