I don't believe so. If it did, things I already had displayed would go
away when the new X-server started.

Reading all that, it probably is.
However, with OpenNX or NoMachine Player, you can go full screen without
enabling the full screen support on the X server. The advantage of
this is
that you can still switch desktops, so if you're someone like me who
has half
a dozen sessions up to different servers, I can readily switch
desktops with
the ALT arrows (or in Linux CTRL-ALT arrows).
Does the NoMachine Player even use normal X11/XQuartz? I think it might
ship an integrated server, custom-tailored to their needs.
With X2Go, on MacOS to go full screen you have to enable full screen on
the XQuartz X-server and when you do that MacOS virtual desktops cease to
function so you can only have one session up at a time. Also any
other windows end up shoing up on top of your remote session which is
confusing.
True. The only workaround seem to be specifying a full screen session
and go along with the still visible menu bar. Without the XQuartz full
screen option. You do can switch between windows/sessions via the X11
menu bar -> Window -> ... though. Is this not an option for you?
With Remmina and the NX plug-in, normally the control-alt arrow keys
still function locally, except that there is a one-pixel pull down at
the top of the menu where you can push on a little keyboard then all
the keystrokes go to the remote like X2Go, but you can toggle that
behavior so if you need to switch desktops you easily can.
The Remmina solution with the toggle I think is really the most elegant
and would love to see something like that implimented in X2Go.
X2Go does however not control/ship the X server. If anything, this could
be implemented in the NX window only, but that sounds like A LOT of work
for little benefit. (Say, a drop-down menu "above" all the remote stuff
which can be pulled down or hidden.)
