      Description

      I had some trouble with my LAN, and for that reason xvnc was failing to launch for some time.
      Now it seems like it has blacklisted a lot of valid DISPLAY_NUMBER values, so I'm seeing the following:

      /bin/vncserver :263 -geometry 800x600
      vncserver: Illegal display number (263). Value must be 1..99.

      /bin/vncserver :264 -geometry 800x600
      vncserver: Illegal display number (264). Value must be 1..99.

      The plugin recommends me to enable the 'cleanup before start' option, but it is already enabled.

      1) There should be a setting for an upper limit to DISPLAY_NUMBER (or the limit should just be hard-coded to 99)
      2) There should be a way to view/edit or at least reset the blacklist

          No, this is not implemented yet.

          Then how will Jenkins behave if all available display numbers are in use or blacklisted?

          Very bad. It would need a restart. I'll implement the above suggestion to clear the blacklist when it's full in the next release.
