I've seen stuff like synergy that uses VNC to make one desktop span multiple
machine running same/different OSen.
You want 1 machine, with 2 people logged into it, each with a different
monitor/keyboard/mouse assigned.
VNC already does something like this with :1, :2, :3 for each new
vncserver. It certainly should be possible to assign specific
monitor/key/mouse to specfic groups.
I've seen a display only with 3 screens on :50 for system monitoring. No
keyboard/mouse. I wish I had saved some of the config details.
