Hello,
Soon or later, the desktop will change greatly. Wayland offers much better desktop in general.
Can you use Unix without X11 forward?
See here the faq of wayland:
You will need soon to adapt your way of working, likely use more VNC, Teamviewer, tightvnc,... and any other solutions. libx11 will no longer allow regular things. It is largely accepted that it is prehistory and primitive to use X11 library(/-es) today (example: here sinus/cosinus/.... plot on x11, xclock, xterm, xedit, xcalendar, x* ... ).
Can you use Unix without X11 forward?
With best regards

What is wrong with X?
The problem with X is that... it's X. When you're an X server there's a tremendous amount of functionality that you must support to claim to speak the X protocol, yet nobody will ever use this. For example, core fonts; this is the original font model that was how your got text on the screen for the many first years of X11. This includes code tables, glyph rasterization and caching, XLFDs (seriously, XLFDs!). Also, the entire core rendering API that lets you draw stippled lines, polygons, wide arcs and many more state-of-the-1980s style graphics primitives. For many things we've been able to keep the X.org server modern by adding extensions such as XRandR, XRender and COMPOSITE and to some extent phase out less useful extensions. But we can't ever get rid of the core rendering API and much other complexity that is rarely used in a modern desktop. With Wayland we can move the X server and all its legacy technology to an optional code path.
Is Wayland network transparent / does it support remote rendering?
No, that is outside the scope of Wayland. To support remote rendering you need to define a rendering API, which is something I've been very careful to avoid doing. The reason Wayland is so simple and feasible at all is that I'm sidestepping this big task and pushing it to the clients. It's an interesting challenge, a very big task and it's hard to get right, but essentially orthogonal to what Wayland tries to achieve.
