the reason I would prefer -Y is that its ( well, the man page says
anyway ) more secure than -X. Also, these days a lot of admins will
disable -X functionality on machines. Have not come across anywhere -Y
didnt work ( and the host OS was installed in the last 5 years ).

I am not doubting that -X will mostly work, but perhaps we should be
promoting the idea of -Y a bit more.
