painfully slow over a remote link.   if I need to sniff traffic, I'll 
use tcpdump.   if I need fancier analysis, I'll tcpdump it to a file, 
and scp the file to my local system and analyze it with wireshark.

also, I'm documenting a procedure for operations that I'm trying to 
automate and simplify as much as possible...    And, having to explain 
how to setup a remote X session, then how to do something with 
pointy-clicky would be painful, a one line command replaced with pages 
of screenshots?  ugh.
