What Could Go Wrong
-------------------
RDP Sharing is a new feature for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS as part of GNOME 42. (Previously only VNC Sharing was offered.)
RDP Sharing can be used for providing remote support so it's important that this feature works well because it may be difficult for the remote admin to fix issues in person.

Other Info
----------
The previous 22.04 LTS SRU, 42.7-0ubuntu1, got stuck in phased updates. We worked with upstream to do a new 42 release in hopes that this update along with the SRU for mutter 42.9 (LP: #1998286) will significantly improve the error rate.
42.7-0ubuntu1 was included in Ubuntu Desktop 22.04.2 so many users already have that version from the original install or got it before phasing was halted.

Accepting, thanks. FTR, I think it's fine to have made improvements in testing without a separate SRU bug. I have reviewed this change and testing looks objectively better now.
