From a security pov copy and paste between the guest and the client is not always desirable. So we need to be able to enable/disable this. The best place to do this from an administration pov is on the hypervisor, so the qemu cmdline is getting a spice disable-copy-paste option, see bug 693645. Example qemu invocation: qemu -spice port=5932,disable-ticketing,disable-copy-paste This bug is for tracking adding support to libvirt to set / pass the spice disable-copy-paste option.
