   Thank you for your post, you reminded me of xdm, which can handle   
   session management using the X Display Manager Control Protocol   
   (XDMCP).  No idea how you'd do that with MS Windows, though...   
      
   (Hmm...does Wayland have something similar to XDMCP? (Ha, not likely...) )   
      
   Cygwin had an X server last time I used it, and it could be run   
   "rootless" so that an X window would appear to be a native MS Windows   
   window.
