You want to transmit the image or the image-blit-please protocol over
the monitor connection?
Negotiate a shared memory segment somehow, then send just notifications.
Have to think about how to to that in detail, ideally this would be a
shared memory segment shared by all three instances involved: the gui
process, the qemu process and the X-Server. So qemu can render directly
into a XShmImage, although it has no (direct) connection to the X-Server.
