You should also be able to build/use Qt-based X clients without
building an X server.  The same is true of any X client, regardless of
framework/widget-library.  You'll probably have to build Xlib, but you
shouldn't have to build an X server.  [I vaguely remember an X11
widget library that didn't use Xlib, but I think all the popular ones
do.]

Or with whatever option points the X-client Qt app at an X server on a
different host.
