I have three quick suggestions for future XFree86 features (All
Related).

1.  Allow the user to have a persistant or non-persistant desktop. I.E.
The user can login, run some applications, logout, let other users
login on the same machine, and when the user logs in again, all his
applications will not have stopped running.  This could be done as a
log-out option (Persistant/Normal Exit) or selectivly (an "xnohup"
application for instance).  This has been one of the advantages of VNC
for some time, however, VNC is not much use locally.

2.  Have some standard way of tranfering windows from one session to
another.  Now, I start some apps on my home system remotely, and have
to use the VNC viewer to use those running apps even when I'm on the
same machine.

3.  Have multiple GUIs runing on one machine.  This way, multiple users
can be logged in, and switched between with Ctrl+Alt+F*.  This feature
is really not needed much if #1 is implimented.
