- The console worker learns whose session it is and checks every ten
seconds that the user may still open the console: an owner removed or a
user deactivated meanwhile loses it, with a line in the terminal. Access
was checked only when the session started, which could last for days.
- One console per VM: a console left open in a forgotten tab locked
everyone out, superusers included. A superuser's connection now takes
the console over, and the other window is told so.
- A paste reaches the VM whole: the non-blocking console stream takes it
in parts, or none while the VM is busy, and the rest was dropped. The
worker sends the rest until the VM has it, for at most five seconds.
- A libvirt error while the console is open (the host gone, the VM
undefined or migrated) ends the session with one line in the terminal
instead of a Python traceback; libvirt no longer prints its errors on
the terminal. Errors are shown as users see them elsewhere: a host that
cannot be reached is not named.
- The terminal says when the VM is not running and its console will open
when it starts. The terminal is raw before the console opens, and the
stream is dropped once when both threads see the VM stop.
