  -vnc :5900,share=ignore
completely ignores the shared flag and allows everybody
connect unconditionally
rdp seems to support some similar (though they don't look identical)
features through replaceUser/multiUser.

« The replaceUser attribute is a boolean deciding whether multiple
simultaneous connections to the VM are permitted. The multiUser attribute
is a boolean deciding whether the existing connection must be dropped and a
new connection must be established by the VRDP server, when a new client
connects in single connection mode. »

I'm wondering if we should try to use similar attributes for both rdp and
vnc for more consistency?


These vnc server flags need to work together with vnc client flag (like: -Shared for vncviewer) for a certain behaviour, and these flags focus on how to share more than whether to share
     or not.
I don't know more about RDP, it seems that their common behaviours are not quite same
     according to above docs.
