Please don't take focus away from the window I'm working in. Please
don't cover up any of the many windows I've carefully arranged so that I
can see everything I need.

Sure. What's that got to do with GUIs? And even if the remote machine
has X11, and my desktop has X11, and they're configured to talk to each
other, and all the other little things you have to do to get remote GUIs
to work, the connection between them will still be irritatingly slow,
because I'm using ADSL and not a local 100Mbps LAN.
