Description

Hi, I think it would be awesome to support an xterm.js client in guacamole. For authentication, Guacamole would need to handle Basic Authentication which is supported by both ttyd/gotty. Gotty also supports using certificates. The ssh connection is pretty awesome, but it is limited in it's ability to copy/paste from the host and also experiences some lag. Xterm.js is a very popular front end for remote connections and I think it would be pretty cool to support this interface through guacamole.
