Yes, you point your clients to the firewall IP as if the remote X client
was the firewall itself.

I beleive so. If you choose to forward X into your internal LAN, you can't
also remotely display X windows nto the firewall too.
Also.. I would NOT recommend to mearly do a X window port forward since
its NOT secure. Do some research and impliment SSH X-Windows
forwarding. Not only will it give you security but PERFORMANCE. SSH
has built-in compression!
