What happens when spice-gtk is built/run against a libusb version
without the patches? Is there a way to detect this situation at runtime?
Or do we need a configure check on the libusb version which is being
used in order to disable usbdk if it's too old?

As far as I understand, this series addresses the automatic redirection
of devices when they are plugged in. What happens for already plugged
devices that the user may want to redirect (eg the built-in webcam in
laptops)? On linux you can go to the USB Device Selection menu, and
manually redirect a device from there. Is it already working on Windows?

Last but not least, I think you mentioned some freeze occurring when
redirecting some devices, and said it would be best to fix it in
spice-gtk. Can you give more details as to when this freezing occurs,
where exactly in the code this occurs (eg spice-gtk method name, and
libusb function which freezes) ? Do you need help with fixing that?
