Xpra

Xpra (X Persistent Remote Applications) is worth looking into, especially from the standpoint of remotely executing programs displaying individual windows in your regular desktop. And it has vnc-like desktop modes, both shadowing an existing server (so it will provide your console's :0 session) and fabricating arbitrary desktops on demand. I use the current 4.4 beta.

TurboVNC

I suggest dropping TigerVNC in favor of TurboVNC. It's a performance-oriented fork from Tiger developed by someone who cares, who is also the person producing VirtualGL, the premier tool for engaging GPU support in apps not running on a console session (vnc, xpra, ssh).
