Isnt this exactly what vncserver does ? Most of the bulk is taken up
by the actual xlibs which are required by the actual X clients rather
than the X server. It seems a shame that qpe is duplicating alot of
this provided functionality and makes little sense on an space limited
device.

But does qpe manage the windows inside that VNC client ?
