Flexible Client/Server model.

I've had this question lurking in my mind. Is it currently possible to use barrier in such a way that each system can act simultaneously as a client /and/ a server. Basically I have a couple of systems and multiple keyboards and It'd be nice to just use whichever one I'm closest to at the moment, not needing a dedicated server.

I would love to have this feature. I would like to replicate on macOS what Mouse Without Borders does on Windows, allowing to use mouse and keyboard from any of the machines.

I have also been thinking about a variation of this request for a while. In my use case, I'd love to be able to configure Barrier to use the macOS server's keyboard, but a Windows clients mouse across both hosts.

I really appreciate this feature! I between two setups:
-at the day I'm sitting on my MAC and control with my MAC my Windows PC
-in the evening I'm sitting on my Windows PC and want control my MAC with my Windows PC

Two options are fine for me:

1. To use both sides without any special switwiching - depending on which inputs I'm using
2. A simple button to switch between Client and Server

Truly, I think it would fundamentally require a different model. instead of being a client/server application you'd enroll computers in a distributed input stream. How would one prioritize which input gets priority if two inputs are active at the same time? I get that it'd be a rather hard problem to solve.
