For clipboard feature I'm not really expert here, Victor or Jakub are.

For the 3D there are 2 cases:
- Virgl, that is using the host card support from guest (more or less),
  for Windows the state is quite early, missing currently the remote
  part, not planned although there are some work;
- vGPU/passthrought remoting. Is what we are investing more time.
Why 2 solutions? With vGPU/passthrought you have either low scalability
(like 1 GPU 1 VM, with Intel 1 GPU 3/4 VMs, with Nvidia you can have if
I remember up to 16 VMs per GPU but is quite expensive) while with Virgl
the scalability should be better.
