First up, X is not my area of expertiese. But I have
friends in strange places and so I asked one of them.
This is the way that I understand that things work
between the end-user (xserver) and cluster-node (xclient).
End User Cluster Node

Ok, this is a bit of a simplification. But the point is
that the end-user initiates the xdmcp request. That can be
handled by LVS. Then the Cluster Node initiates pretty
much everything after that. So LVS doesn't need to be
involved beyond there.
