For me as an outsider, the development seems fairly chaotic and without 
clear directions. E-mails to spice-devel (except patches) are almost 
never answered, so I decided write this myself. AFAIK there is no 
spice-users list either.

I tried to cope with spice bugs for more than 2 years, but finally I 
found a better solution. I enabled XDMCP in VM (in case of openSUSE, 
just set DISPLAYMANAGER_REMOTE_ACCESS="yes" and 
DISPLAYMANAGER_STARTS_XSERVER="no" in /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager). 
Now use Xephyr or Xnest (or just plain Xorg on a separate virtual 
console) to connect, eg.:

/usr/bin/Xephyr :1 -query IP_OF_VM -resizeable

Cheers,
Andres.
