Are you familiar with X11? It is the 80's version of that 
concept. There's some downsides though to this model; it is 
pretty sensitive to network latency, especially.

I've been wanting to do a network transparent gui myself, and is 
one thing I might do with my crappy implementation once it is a 
little more complete. I'd make the display a little thicker 
though, with basic widgets being there so it can just communicate 
in higher level events. I also want the ability to detach and 
reattach elsewhere, ala gnu screen.
