I just tested USB redirection with a Fedora 20 client to a Fedora 20 
guest (don't have a virtualized Windows 7 vm atm).

It works, but:

- With spice-xpi the automatic USB redirection didn't work. I had to 
leave full screen, choose File - USB device selection and manually 
select the USB device I want to redirect

- With native client USB redirection works out of the box

Btw, I also figured out that Fedora 20 (the client) blocks USB 
redirection if you have SELinux on enforcing - setting it to permissive 
works.
