While VNC or RDP provide clients with a view of the display, X11 does not do this. X11 clients are the applications rendering to the display, with the display itself not really being part of the protocol, but rather an integral component of the server. We already have an effort underway for adding the functional equivalent of X11 support, but it has taken the form of a display and input driver for the X.Org X11 server (see thread linked above). - Mike
