Gunnar, on Friday, Seb fixed gnome-control-center to work with the new
gnome-remote-desktop using VNC like was done in previous Ubuntu/GNOME
releases.

However, we think that our users will be more comfortable using RDP.

The documentation you pointed to doesn't document VNC well.

The GNOME feature we are backporting would make that page out of date.
- Screen Sharing is now Remote Desktop
- For #7, there is now a Remote Control on/off switch
- There is no require a password or ask for access.

We also could document remote desktop using Discourse. Except for the
translation problem, that is a faster way to provide Ubuntu-specific
docs.

Marco was looking today at also allowing users to switch to VNC with
this dialog as an Ubuntu patch. If we are able to do that, we think that
fixes the main regression risk here.

If we don't provide this dialog, there really isn't a user-friendly for
people to be able to share their desktop using RDP at all. That is a
requested feature.

Title:
  FFe: Backport new RDP settings

Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  We are shipping some GNOME 41 and some GNOME 42 components in jammy.
  In GNOME 42 the remote desktop support moved from VNC to RDP. We have
  the updated gnome-remote-desktop in jammy, but not the settings
  changes in gnome-control-center 41. The proposal is to backport these
  settings.
