Yes.  What do you think the pictures at the top of
http://www.fresco.org/screenshots.html (dated 2002-11-22) are? :-)

It's not a Kit, though; it doesn't need to create custom Graphic's, so
there's not much point.  It's just a client.  This makes life much
simpler, more stable, less bloaty, etc.

It'd be nice to get something like the cygwin/OSX X servers that run
rootless under the native windowing system, but that's a simple matter
of programming.
