Thank you very much !
I will have a look at the python script, it might do the job as you are
saying, Greg.
I've seen this: https://ovirtclient.com/ and it seems to be exactly
what I need ( especially for running on PI ), but I assume it is a
commercial solution...
Maybe wrapping and running the script on PI would make it somehow similar.
Not sure about the features like vms list, media mount, vm power control,
usb redirection, how will work...
It would really be a nice thing to have the thin client running on a
raspberry pi.

^ yes, this is effectively what you need. There is no direct vm console
connection via hypervisors because we use a time-limited access ticket.
Using that py example above, you should be able to create a shell script
wrapper that gets you the ticket and launches remote-viewer.
If you don't want to use the the ticket system, you could install VNC on
your VMs individually and just vnc connect to <vm>:5900, outside the scope
of oVirt pretty much. This is how we treat RDP for Windows.
Best wishes,
Greg
