As an added note to anyone trying to replicate this, for the application
to actually open on the "main workstation" computer, that the same VT as
used by the terminal (:1 in my example, but can be :0, or anything) must
be open on the ssh application client pc (main workstation, in this
example) and logged in as the same user.  Otherwise, you only get
various confusing errors, (either a message about /tmp/.X11-unix/X? file
being missing, or Magic cookie failure if not logged in.)
