I think you also need to exchange some metadata like screen resolution etc, right ?

Currently resolution is hardcoded, but sure, can be done. Also need to figure out things like changing language/keyboard layout or using IME, to be able to type text properly. Sending mouse cursor picture from server to client may be nice too, in case a game uses hardware cursor and changes it's appearance, like some RTS games - currently mouse cursor is just being baked into video frames. Many possible improvements!
