Improved Remote Control

Better scaling, at the moment, it always opens as a window that is less than a normal fullscreen application, when I enlarge it, the scaling of the feed from the remote device suffers.
Remove the 2gb data transfer limit over the remote control connection, or at least up it significantly.
Remote control for linux, like a putty ssh window for servers, and also desktop remote control for Ubuntu desktop etc

Also would be good if remote control was fully web based, whether on Mac or Windows, to ensure a consistent remote control experience.

Especially for remoting into Mac machines. Sometimes the mouse will not traverse the whole monitor.

It would be nice to be able to allow the technician to have the ability to request the user to input their password (stored securely) so if they are away the technician can paste the password into the login dialog to gain access again - technician never knows the password, but securely pasted back into the login dialog with no ability to copy it other wise.

Another nice thing would be an option to keep the screen alive so if you are waiting for an installation the SS would not time out requiring login again.
