Application persistency even when DISPLAY connection is lost

[root66]

Hi,

A friend of mine asked me this:

Is it possible to run a remote X11 app., have its DISPLAY locally,
have the app. continue when the local machine goes down, and when
the local machine comes up again, have the output being displayed
locally again.  All without interruption of said app.

The app. he wanted to do this for was Vmware running a MS product
on a Linux host.  Local machine is Linux also.
