bhyve How to install freebsd guest in bhyve with graphics

What is the correct way to install freebsd guest in bhyve and get graphics ?

Should UEFI mode be used in the freebsd guest config ?
 
I've never seen / heard of this kind of setup before... how does it work?

I have XFCE running on my FreeBSD laptop. Can I install bhyve, and run say Firefox from within bhyve, and have the window appear on my normal UI? I do that with jails, by setting :0 - but I also have to null mount /tmp/.X11-unix to /$JAILROOT/tmp/.X11-unix, which I don't think I can do with bhyve. Maybe it's possible to share it via nfs mount?

It's unclear to me whether I can run the process on bhyve but use the host's X11 server, or if it's a totally different desktop session using something like VNC.
