Not sure if you're aware, so I apologise if you are:

1) X11 is already a network aware display system, so it wouldn't take too much work to run remote.

2) SSH has built-in X11 forwarding with `ssh -X <host>`, when you run commands they will be rendered locally. On OSX this needs an X11 server (XQuartz) to work properly.

3) There are "better" remote desktop solutions like "parsec"[0] which run on Windows and Linux. They offer much lower latency and higher bit-depth. They're designed for games. (obviously this comes at the price of bandwidth).
