Bummer - query-vnc returns a single struct VncInfo instead of an array.
Maybe the thing to do is add a new command:

{ 'command': 'query-vncs', 'returns': [ 'VncInfo' ] }

which returns an array where the first element matches the older
'query-vnc', but by being an array it lets you return all vnc
information in one call.
