What I meant to say was, is it possible to create a window on another display,
ie, one you're not using.  If so, is there a way for the "user" to control
this activity, in a similar fashion to mesg y/n in unix.  I can foresee
a few problems in a lab environment if this is not controllable.  I have
understood directing windows to other displays is possible.
