Most people using a desktop environment will want to use Virt-Manager +
virgl over Spice.
As mentioned there is no need to enable gtk3 or sdl2 just virglrenderer and
opengl.
The performance gains are stunning when using virgl[1].

IMHO the above dependencies would be well worth its weight for such
benefits.

Spice-server 13.1 was released over eight months ago. I have not noticed
any "major" issues
with this branch. I too would love to see virgl in Stretch. If this is not
possible maybe
we could hope for a backport? Quite a few flavors of GNU/Linux are already
using Spice 13.x
as is though.
