[clug] remoting Mozilla over X

[Martijn van Oosterhout]

I don't know for sure, but Mozilla can use the X protocol to find
itself. IOW, if you have a Mozilla running on your own machine but
hidden, starting it remotely might trigger it locally. Just a wild
guess though.

Or if some program is watching for the signal? and triggering it for
you?

Hope this helps,
