It's fairly easy to create a restricted process tree for testing.  ssh into a Mac which has no one logged into the console, from another machine, and use that connection to launch an xterm or Xemacs window to the other machine.  Then log out of the ssh session.  The session running in the xterm will now have no access privileges to the window server, and can be used for testing.
