So, this, plus a permission specifically for updating connection weight should 
do the trick, right?

Yes, theoretically, though I'm not sure what form that would need to take. I'm 
wary of adding an actual new type of permission to the extension API. It'd make 
more sense if Guacamole's permission model was ACL-based, but it was based off 
a traditional UNIX-style permission scheme. The database auth could certainly 
do whatever it likes with its own permissions, but exposing those permissions 
such that they are manageable via the UI would be tricky.

Maybe worth some discussion on the mailing list. Same probably for whether 
implementing our own resource-tracking mechanism is a separate issue vs. 
blocking.

> RDP
>    Affects Versions: 0.9.10-incubating
>         Environment: CentOS Linux 7 (Core)
> Linux 3.10.0-327.10.1.el7.x86_64

> Implementation of an resource based (CPU, Memory, I/O, Loggedin User) 
> balancing in opposite to the current implemented guacamole connections round 
> robin. This is needed because of an large RDP infrastructure (300+ TS), where 
> the terminal server been accessed via multiple RDP load balancers during 
> migration.
> A prototype has been developed in a guacamole fork
