Sorry for my late reply, GMail junk filter considered this email spam.
Bad boy, Emilio, bad boy :)

Available features on 0.6.0 are:
* keyboard mapping (is this the same as "keyboard features"?)
* shared folders
* start program on connect
* attach to console

Upcoming features in 0.7.0 are:
* sound redirection
* printer sharing

Features which should be still missing:
* Ignoring motion events

What you mean with fullscreen mode selection?
Not sure about wm decorations since I can't test it on both programs.
