> Some parameters, such as the username/password for VNC or RDP, are better entered manually within the client when connecting rather than stored on the server in MySQL or {{user-mapping.xml}}.
> Storing secure data within parameters on the server side has security implications that don't fit well with all use cases.
> Further, some connections would benefit if their settings can be modified locally before connecting. A user could change the color depth or screen size of their RDP session, for example, for the sake of a slower connection.
