Xnext is part of the XFree86 distribution, 'man Xnest' should tell you all you need to know.
simple scenario: 1. startup XDarwin rootless and run a basic window manager 2. in an Xterm, run 'Xnest :1 -geometry <something equal or less than current screen resolution>&' 3. you now have DISPLAY :1 in a rooted window you can move around and manage 4. start a window manager for :1 and have fun. The rest is left as an exercise to the reader...
