Thanks, link is fixed. Looking it up might answer some questions.
This software allows to use the Kobo like a eink Monitor for another computer, like a desktop PC. Started as a fun project, but is actually used by some people for e.g. making a nice low-energy screen for embedded projects (though arguably the Kobos CPU is faster than that of a Raspberry Pi - it's a strange combination). Eye-impaired people having problems with LCDs use that too, I've been told. Its productive use came as a surprise to me, too, but I can see the use cases now.
As for a full remote - well, it has no input handling for touchscreens yet. The needed bits and pieces are mainly there, but the layer that actually generates RFB (the VNC protocol) messages from input events is missing. That function only handles buttons as for now - which are present on Kindle 2/3 devices only. It could also handle touchscreen input events if me or rather someone else actually bothered enough to write the few lines of code it would take.
