[plug] migrating X clients to another X server

Hi all

I remember some discussion on [plug] a while ago, where someone asked 
about migrating X clients, VNC style. I told them it wasn't currently 
possible as far as I knew, and I haven't heard anything since to 
contradict that. However, this URL:

http://216.239.37.100/search?q=cache:fXkAKEChrtUC:www.xfree86.org/~keithp/talks/randr/randr/+xfree86+randr+client&hl=en&start=1&ie=UTF-8

(what a monster URL - google search for "xfree86 randr client" and click 
"cached" on the top link)

may be of interest on the topic. Alas, its by that Xfree86 developer who 
just got kicked from the team (hence the use of google cache)... but the 
code is already in the X server.

BTW, I do hope the X folks sort that out w/o too much pain, infighting 
is never fun.

Craig
