You can configure vnc server(s) to show a specific device + head, which
allows to run multihead configurations by using multiple vnc servers (one
for each head).

You can link input devices to device + head, so input events can go to
different devices depending on where they are coming from.  Which is
most useful for tablet devices in a vnc multihead setup, each head has
its own tablet device then.  Requires manual guest-side configuration
to establish the same tablet <-> head relationship (tested that years
ago with X11, not sure if and how this can be done with wayland).

HTH,
