Cute.

Wouldn't it be a lot easier, even in the X case, to multiplex that at
the framebuffer level?  E.g., use XGGI on top of the GGI "tile" target
on top of the GGI vnc target (which doesn't exist atm, but fixing
that's just a simple matter of programming)?

It's not like they can't assume a fast connection between the machines
in their use case, and graphics acceleration isn't going to buy you
that much when all the apps are remote to start with.
