I wrote some test cases that do that in test/randr/randr_lease.c;
that's probably more useful as it actually checks to make sure the
system responds according to the spec in a few different ways. I could
write more tests if you thought of things you'd like to see?

Yeah, would be easy, except for input. Any idea how I can steal some
input devices away from one server and hand them to another?
