As local resource redirection uses virtual channel, you can allow/deny WINSTATION_VIRTUAL to control resource redirection.
Deny will take precedence over allow. it will work if you allow everyone for redirection during publishing, then use wmi to add user/user groups whom you want to deny redirection.

Soo Kuan Teo , explored this option, its not feasible to apply this on each VM in large enterprise.
Better option I'm expecting it as a feature for user policy which can be filtered for active directory groups. or may be in future via user Azure AD policy.
