SUMMARY

My understanding (see 
https://userbase.kde.org/KDEConnect#Missing_or_limited_features_on_some_platforms) is that virtual displays aren't implemented from android or iOS tablets.  Given that a virtual display can be implemented by running krfb-virtualmonitor from the CLI on a PC, and using a VNC on the android tablet, could something be incorporated into KDE Connect?   It would be very neat to be able to use KDE Connect to invoke this functionality. 

Thanks and regards.
