This issue affected our lab of about 6 grad students as
well.    We don't regularly forward anything over X11, but
it is VERY important that we have remote command line access
as any user.  We have a small farm (about 5, soon to be
about 10) of intel and ppc macs that we distribute
experiments on.  

As others point out, having portions of the interface
forwardable over X11 is very nice functionality, but it is
not critical in our particular mode of usage.  

Thanks for being so responsive!
