Remote desktop software is traditionally the source of many hacks - like exploiting the software itself, not just using it. So there is a relevant security angle here. Aside from that though - there's a lot of comments on rust threads in general about how Rust isn't ready for this or that or the next thing, so these types of projects showcase that maybe the "not ready" info is outdated or over-exaggerated. It's also one of those things that seems to occur "naturally" as a language becomes more widely adopted. A few years ago there were tons of projects linked here about "x - a tool for y written in go". And before that ruby or python, etc.
