My application involves xemacs, so a means of opening a window in an

Part of the solution would include gnuclient outside XEmacs (use the one
that comes with XEmacs rather than the one on the system) and gnuserve
inside XEmacs. But that just works in a terminal. So this is still not a
solution to your original problem.
OroborOSX had a way to launch programs from the desktop using scripts that
checked for whether an X system was up and, as a result, whether to launch
one first. I don't know whether it supported drag-n-drop. And Gimp for OSX
requires X and seems to use the existing X system if it is up. So the
source to that might provide some help. Gimp, similar to mozilla, uses a
*-remote formula for accepting new input files into existing instances.
There are two scripts to handle startup and d'n'd in the Resources
directory.
