Basically you need to change the window management code in the server
to support multiple window hierarchies, and create one hierarchy per
display; then you need to associate related things like clipboard or
window classes to the proper hierarchy. It basically boils down to
implementing the Windows concept of desktops and window stations. It's
not very hard, but it's still a bit of work.
