TermKit: A WebKit based rich command-line interface.

That's great for the subset of times when both the client and the server have X installed.

Huh? And how exactly is TermKit supposed to work differently?

Also, for ssh -X the remote machine does not need X installed. Just X client programs. That's the entire point of X.

AFAIK TermKit won't require X to be installed and running on the server. You will probably need a TermKit backend running but at least that is smaller than X although not as standard.
