Of course, the DISPLAY variable could track the port # properly, too,
just as a convenience to the user.  Then I could pull it off of that.

I think that's difficult, because the DISPLAY variable is determined by launchd but the actual port used is probably determined by Xquartz?

Aaaaand... I'm playing around with lsof here and think something may be broken: -c works by itself, -i works by itself, -a does not appear to AND them but suppresses output completely (as if the intersection of Xquartz and internet socket is empty instead of showing the TCP listen socket and any connected clients), omitting -a produces the expected OR behavior (which is useless here). :(
