Nope. I wish. IMHO that inability is one key problem with X11's network
transparency - that you can't hand off a client from one server to
another. Would be nice wouldn't it? I've heard occasional speculation
that it might be possible by using some kind of X proxy but I've never
heard of any software that can do it, I'm pretty sure LBX can't for example.
Would be nice, wouldn't it?
