So I went back and thought about whether you could extend the X approach to streaming of 3D games. I came up with the following walls:

* Licensing issues * 3D games can max out the PCI bus, network traffic wouldn't stand a chance * How the heck do you keep up with the frames on less powerful hardware? * You'd need a properly portable 3D graphics API

So the White Queen would probably think it's fairly doable before breakfast.
