I would say that yes it is possible, and no I don't want to support it. The old-style X over TCP/IP is not very secure. Use ssh with X11 forwarding, and your X11 will startup for you on demand.

Sometimes, I accidentally quit X11 instead of the individual application. X11 will automatically launch if a local X client needs it, but the same isn't true of a remote X client.

Is there a way for launchd or something else to launch X11 when a remote connection is received, xinetd-style?
