That's very fine, I like Plan9 but it has too few apps. But do you think you can really achieve the goal? I think it's rather difficult with X. And you mean I would be able to select "term" anywhere, click the mouse and see term? And what about plumber? And if ever wm supports it, apps (gtk,qt,x) don't. Btw is there any apps behaving like Plan9ish (meaning they're snarfable)?
