That question is asked best on the spice-devel mainling list (added to
Cc:).

Improving video encoding support in spice is making progress, and remote
support for virtio-gpu (and intel-vgpu) will build on top of that.

But I don't know in detail what the status is and what still needs to be
done to complete remote support.
