The true is I never tried that :)

At the first glance I would say it's a complicated topic and that will 
need some investigations before answering. But if you create a container 
with the network isolation you won't be able to access to the X server 
via af_unix socket.

I am used to launch one X server on the host with the tcp_listen option 
and connect via tcp in a container.
I use the container for migrating application from one host to another 
host and it does not work with a X server, that would require some 
hardware virtualization and that's the job of a VM not a container.
