I did, somewhat; maybe I need to revisit VNC, because my first thought
was how I didn't want to run a full window manager and all the assorted
crap that comes with my idea of a "VNC session", I just want to display
*one* program at a time and be able to detach it.  xpra at least calls
this "seamless mode" where you're only forwarding certain apps, not an
entire desktop.  But to be honest, I didn't really poke around VNC's
settings or abilities lately, so maybe there's something else there now.

Yeah, about that.. it would have helped if I realized the "Disable Fast
Zoom/Pan/Home" button was checked off... whoops :/
