Are bugs related to Remote Desktop performance best reported against the client or Remote App? It doesn't appear to support bitblts so simply moving a window is extremely jerky and things like CSS transitions are basically a slideshow.

Enterprise Mode would be useful since that's getting a bit of traction as an alternative to staying mired in IE8.

There is no GPU acceleration. When running IE through RDP we default to software rendering and unfortunately there isn't anything we can do about that :(
Not even old-school acceleration like we used to have in the 90s? I thought RDP used to at least support things like "move this rectangle to a new position" for the performance win over things like VNC.
