Oh, God. Are you serious? Listen try sitting in Texas some time and opening a X application even over a compressed SSH link from Delaware. It literally takes minutes for a splash screen to paint. And using applications are nearly impossible due to interaction lag. You're better off using a VMware console, RDP heck even Citrix which at one time was itself supposedly X based.
X is simply awful over the WAN, trust me. Please note: I'm not talking about an essentially text-only experience like xterm, which works fine. I mean actually using X as a graphical client.
