We are actually quite interested in something like this.  In effect, it
is RDS but replaces the RDP protocol with SPICE for the advantages SPICE
brings.

We have also been toying with the idea of using KVM/KSM to move to a
single server per user.  This would provide much greater isolation and
non-repudiation but we are concerned about the overhead of KVM on the
KVM host and deduplication on the SAN.  Thanks - John
