The xmove pseudo server does it for X displays. You run xmove and you attach it to your usual display (say unix:0.0). Then you run your X clients and attach them to the xmove server (say unix:1.0). The client output goes to your screen thru xmove. When you want to move to another display you can detach xmove from your old display and attach it to your new one. X clients are connected with xmove so they don't know anything about the change. Unfortunately I don't remember where I found xmove, but a Web or archie search will tell you.
