Is it possible to embed the main window of another program into a pane in something written using Lazarus, letting the Lazarus program provide the "furniture" functionality that's usually handled by the window manager? The scenario I'm thinking about is putting multiple instances of something non-trivial like Wireshark into an overall "wrapper".
Going some way towards answering my own question: Xnest or Xephyr can be embedded into an existing window using the -parent option, where the parameter is the window identifier shown by e.g. xwininfo. There are various authorisation issues which I've not yet got to grips with.
