Please note that official win8+ qxl driver is not ready yet so you won't
have continuous resolution change (just in steps of well-known
resolutions), multi monitor support and some video performance
optimizations with those OSs

Please consider use of native apps: aSpice/Opaque [1] or "flexVDI
Client" [2] or moVirt [3]. Opaque and moVirt give you oVirt integration
right away, flexVDI has iOS support

[1] https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Iordan%20Iordanov%20%28Undatech%29
[2] https://github.com/flexVDI/launcher-mobile
[3] https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ovirt.mobile.movirt

All of them are going to have better UX than spice-html5. FlexVDI also
developed their own html5 client (available at their github as well)
with some stuff better and some worse than spice-html5 client.

IIRC spice-html5 supports all the compression types so protocol-side
optimizations should be available automatically and without issues.

The "WAN options" of user portal mean that agent disables "fancy" bits
of Windows graphics, the only support from client is to do the setting
when establishing connection. You could give it a try

set ClientModeSpiceDefault engine-config variable to Html5 (as per
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1311408 )
