Currently, when you join as a client, there is a dialog box to confirm that the server SSL signature matches.

It would be nice to use a similar mechanism to confirm clients joining from the server. This would be a simple way to prevent random clients from joining your server and stealing your keystrokes.

Random clients cannot join your server iiuc as you need to configure clients in the "Configure server" tab
