X11 can render individual windows (Xclients) through the network on another Xserver since decades. With XPRA you can even buffer them, to move them from one Xserver to another or make sure they survive network disconnect. It’s very cool, but not widely used.
Did they invent X11 Forwarding over the network?

Yes, the
ssh -X
flag forwards it.I doubt it’s nearly as secure as OpenSSH though.
it goes through an SSH tunnel
