Enable to assist clients in RDP/VDI sessions #241

AFAIK right now on Linux it is only possible to assist users on spice sessions or physically at the host. How to assist thin client users? I'm trying to set up a vm to help my nephew learn some programming and basic Linux use, and I set up a local apache guacamole server for him to connect to it, and I'd like to use Remotely to interact with his sessions.

abc@abc-ubuntu:~/Desktop$ sudo ./Remotely_Desktop 
[sudo] password for abc: 
Processing Args: /home/abc/Desktop/Remotely_Desktop

just wanted to add a thank you. I very much appreciate your work. It's amazing.

Thank you. :)

On Windows, you're already able to join and interact with RDP sessions. You can switch Windows sessions using the dropdown at the bottom of the sidebar.

I don't have any plans for extending the functionality on Linux at the moment, though.
