[ovirt-users] remote-viewer on OSX

SpiceViewer is quite old. It just doesn't work well. Two issues:
1. It's slow. It takes the whole couple seconds to scroll text screen
by one line.
2. It tries to hide the mouse cursor in the bottom right corner. This
activates Hot Corners action.

HTML5 spice viewer doesn't work well too if you have QXL drivers
installed inside VM

The best option is VNC. See
