Very interesting.  I was considering making an RFB (the VNC protocol) 
backend for Wine for about the same reason.  That is that the only really 
decent driver is X11 right now since ttydrv is fairly useless.

Hmm, maybe I should actually do that.  As an added bonus since VNC is just 
basically a generic framebuffer it would allow a fairly easy port to 
another generic framebuffer interface such as LinuxFB (or whatever the new 
hot-shit FB project for Linux is these days).
