FWIW this sort of works in KDE.  If you ssh to another box with -Y and 
in the resulting bash session type

kicker

it does give you a "start button" from the remote box, in fact a whole 
panel.  But confusingly the panel reflects the windows open on your 
local box :-)  However the start button contents, and any apps started 
there run on the remote box but using your local display.  It's not 
quite what Les asks for but it's quite cool that it can work :-)
