Comment on Oracle VM VirtualBox – VM Escape via VGA Deviceparent

Not RDP, but like encryption, it's the only other feature I can think of which remains on the extpack. IMHO they are all enterprisey "mark a checkbox" level features that should be irrelevant for even actual enterprise users.

Why do you have to use RDP anyway? It gives almost zero advantages over VNC here since all the output is going to be raster.

No preference for either protocol; I just used RDP because that was the most convenient with VirtualBox and the plugin. (I think (?) I tried VNC and couldn't get it to work.) I use VNC now with UnRAID's KVM, but probably would have stuck with RDP were it supported.
