FreeRDP has experimental support for sdl3. We now have libsdl3 and sdl3-ttf in the tree, so we could enable it. I tried to build it with the latest 3.14.1 and it seemed to work better than the sdl2 client. The ebuild diff is quite simple, but I think libsdl3 needs to have any of the gui use flags enabled (e.g. X or wayland).
