Well, I think he was talking about multiple displays as all except X
implement them.  But I was wondering what it would take for your above
restrictions to go away.  For example, BeOS allows multiple desks of
different resolution and depth, and you can just drag them between.
Is there any hope of extending X such that this can be done?
