so, "DISPLAY=0:0 programname options" will start any x program (should be
   useful in init scripts, as i'd like to have pd to be up-and-running on a
   (re)boot when in a performance mode).

Well, no.  It'll start the restricted set of programs that can
actually run without their interface, but aren't bright enough to
detect there is no X server running.
