Fantastic, thanks! I don't mind impractical; as long as it's not
impossible. The 'quit-wm' function seems to work well enough as-is in
my brief testing. At the moment, I'm only using simple commands, so
hopefully it should prove 'practical enough'.

Thanks for the heads up. I completely missed the `-display host:disp`
argument: that should do exactly what I want.

Thanks again for the help!
