FTFA:
          "When I say 'rdp-like' I mean 'install enough awareness of
the possibility of remoting in the rendering system that remoting can
send a rendering command stream instead of raw pixels if that seems to
be a win'. Wordy, I admit," Jackson details, "And, obviously, much
more work than just vnc-like scraping. But it's a serious win for WAN
links, and is the only viable way to remote 3D, etc."

This is just like ssh -X. Yes, it's far off, but no one is talking
about making remoting a thing of the past.
