I don't understand why Walsh claims that Xephyr window is not
resizable. "xrandr -s <width>x<height>" resizes it just fine.

As to:
"Maybe the X team will fix this, or provide a rootless X on X server,
which would let us allow sandboxed applications to at least communicate
with each other."

He could run them on the same Xephyr instance. Applications can be
switched for example with keyboard shortcuts or
using "matchbox-remote -next":
