Well, the secure option (iirc) is more against other listeners.  But I
think it also discards synthetic key and mouse events.

Well, VNC would do it, but it also allows other things to view it.
And the security of VNC against other connections seems limited (a
little password).  I really lean towards Xnest (an xserver running in
a window) but I don't know if it's safe enough.
