No I don't think that's anything we will ever add to virt-manager. I can
understand the desire but virt-manager is not about managing physical hosts.

There's also vnc-server/xvnc and xspice. But if your main qualm with ssh -X is
that the ssh session doesn't exit cleanly after running gedit, I'd a) file a
gedit bug and b) learn a simple command line text editor like nano to work
around the issue in the interim.
