    Stepping back to the beginning of this thread, this is actually
    already implemented in CVS emacs:

	    emacsclient --eval '(make-frame-on-display "localhost:12")'

Then it would appear we have a serious security problem already,
on some systems.

I will comment out this feature; when someone makes the changes
necessary to make it safe, we can turn it back on.
