Bug Description

Synergy has a useful command line interface that can query the state of Synergy.
As of now, this CLI is part of the main synergy-service package.

In some cases the synergy-service is setup on a remote machine. The CLI is then only available on the remote machine, the user must then SSH into the remote machine to use the CLI.

Would it be better if the client from synergy-service was split into two python packages?
That way a user may install synergy-service into a remote machine and synergy-cli into its local workstation. The user could then query the Synergy state directly from its local machine.

NOTE: marked this as "Wishlist" as it is a feature request and not a bug report.
