Why would you want something that is not permanent?

I know a porn star who has some prominent tattoos that are not permanent (possibly Henna that she has re-inked). They are her trademark, but also an exit strategy from the porn biz. Retire, take a vacation to let the ink fade. Then she can go out in public as the woman who looks like that porn star, but without the tats.

gtkclient->ssh->intertubes->ssh->gtkapp

Which means that I have to install/maintain a gtkapp on ever desktop that needs to access gtkclient. No thanks. In a corporate environment, that could be thousands of desktops.

This is the sort of architecture that only Microsoft could love, with per-seat licenses for each user.

With X, it is: Xclient->network->Xserver

And Xserver is available on numerous OSs, so there's no desktop lockin.
