This bug outlines two requests:
1. Add Win 2012 to the list of supported guest operating systems, this has been supported since RHEV 3.2.

2. RFE: Change this list to a table, adding information about which operating systems are supported on SPICE. Ie:

|| Operating System                     || Client || Guest ||
-------------------------------------------------------------
|| RHEL 3 and higher (32-bit, 64-bit)   ||  Yes   ||  Yes  ||
|| Windows XP SP3 and higher (32-bit)   ||  Yes   ||  Yes  ||
|| Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit)           ||  Yes   ||  Yes  ||
|| Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit)           ||  No    ||  No   ||
|| Windows Server 2003 SP2 and higher   ||  Yes   ||  Yes  ||
|| Windows Server 2008 (32-bit, 64-bit) ||  Yes   ||  Yes  ||
|| Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit)      ||  Yes   ||  Yes  ||             
|| Windows Server 2012 (64-bit)         ||  No    ||  No   ||           

Suggest to add explanation of why SPICE is not supported on Win 8/2012 (missing SPICE drivers, fallback to RDP) similar to that in https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.2/html-single/Power_User_Portal_Guide/index.html#Introduction_to_Connection_Protocols
