To further my education, can anyone tell me the syntax to add root as a user
of X? Oh, wait, I think I've got it (not tested):
$ xhost + SI:localuser:root
localuser:root being added to access control list
And later, for security (I guess):
$ *xhost - SI:localuser:root*
localuser:root being removed from access control list
