`Improving the support for RDP features', this definitely should be the
first priority. The feature I asked for is actually not a big one and
there is already a patch for 1.4.1 though it didn't patch cleanly in
rdesktop CVS. My point is such nice feature might as well deserve a
place in rdesktop. We can see many apps has it. To name a few, lftp,
mplay, ssh etc.
