Well, for terminal programs (not X11), the program screen is cool.  It
allows you to select text from any window using familiar vi editing
commands ;-)  And it offers Emacs-like isearch on C-s and C-r.

But I don't know of anything similar for X11.

It would be way cool, though.  Please do tell about your findings.
