Ok. I took the suggestions, and now have:
Xephyr -screen 1358x693 :1 & ssh -Xf firefox@localhost 'twm -display :1 & firefox -no-remote --display :1'

I found the xsel(1) scripts to do copying and pasting from different displays, and it works with some getting used to. I intend to make some title bar buttons to make this easier.

I still don't know whether I should be running Xephyr as my user, or as the firefox user.

Also, would the sshd_config ForceCommand option be a good idea?

ForceCommand twm -display :1 & firefox -no-remote --display :1

It's working well. After using xset to match my mouse settings, I still notice a touch of mouse lag, but it's completely usable.

I would like to hear comments about using pf to filter user/group, to make sure Firefox uses a proxy. The idea behind this is to stop Firefox from leaking my IP. Is this the most efficient way to do this?

Thanks
