nah, if the PC is linux just run an X server (if this term is
unfamiliar,  look it up, it's probably not what you think) on 
the RPI and leave everything plugged into it.

or get a KVM switch. or just do non-graphical apps....

If it's windows (I know of people who run GCC on windows) you could
perhaps use rdesktop or VNC instead.
