They can. This will work will all proposed solutions, as far as I
understand. It also works currently with Xalf.

Of course the remote applications must launched through the wrapper (must
be installed on remote machine).

With the XClientMessage based solution, the wrapper will be linked agains
libX11 (which is present on remote machine, since we are starting an
X11-app). With a CORBA-based solution, as I understands it, CORBA-software
(whatever this means) must be present on the remote machine. This is a
drawback.
