Indeed, this network transparency, I use it every day... It is the #1 feature I couldn't do without on Wayland.
But X11 has been stale so long it would really benefit from a back-to-the-drawing-board approach. From many points of view. Network latency, security etc.
But Wayland isn't it for me... It's too desktop centric IMO.
No, running apps remotely. I specifically don't want to run desktops within Windows. Having remotely running programs on my desktop within my native window manager (or even on Mac and Windows) is much better.
I mainly use it when logging into headless servers by the way. Saves me setting up a complete desktop environment there. All they need is the GUI apps I need and some X libs.
