[Pkg-ltsp-devel] Dynamic swap on clients?

With the nbdswapd script created by Vagrant, one idea occured to me.
Why don't we combine this with the swapd or swapspace packages, and
let them connect to the server and enable more swap dynamically when
the clients are running low on memory?  It should not be very hard to
modify them to not create a file on disk, but instead use nbd to
create a swapfile on the server.

Anyone have any idea how hard that would be?
