If it's the persistence you're looking for then NX might be what you're
looking for. I've not tried it myself but everyone has great things to
say about it (http://freenx.berlios.de/ ?)

If it's simply a matter of keeping everything tidy in a single X window
then running everything through Xnest might be the tool you're looking
for (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xnest).
