Description

Server management sometimes requires broadcasting input events across multiple open terminals, effectively running the same commands across all terminals (while monitoring output) without also having to manually duplicate those commands.

Guacamole should support such interaction, providing some interface which allows a user to elect to have their input events broadcast across multiple connections. This naturally requires that some interface for displaying multiple connections exists, as specified by GUACAMOLE-723.
