This utility is called 'xmove'.
1. The usuall stuff one finds in gdm/kdm/xdm/wdm/*dm
2. An option for a "persistent" session.
I'm not sure if it's what you want, but Fedora Core 3 supposedly has now a similar feature.
Since it simulates an X server, it must remain up-to-date with today's X extensions, and it does not. In fact, it claims it doesn't support 24bit color. But, hey, the hack is there for years! The proof-of-concept exists. Someone should take it from there.
Keep in mind: Microsoft's (excellent!) Terminal Services wasn't implemented in a straightforward way either. They didn't get it "for free". It's a plenty of clever hacks of a system which wasn't even initially designed as multiuser!
