The QXL driver already has some support for that, see
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-qxl/ , this is enabled
through the --enable-xspice configure argument. See
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-qxl/tree/README.xspice
as well.

Iirc there are 2 approaches to do that, which I forgot ;) This probably
involves the agent transmitting application windows positions, and the
client masking everything except the windows we are interested in. But
maybe there are smarter ways, I really don't know ;)
