If a console app, fire it up in screen, then detach the screen.  You
can reconnect to the session at any time or even have mulitple
connections at once viewing the same app.  For X apps, fire them up
against a VNC virtual framebuffer and view with a VNC client,
connecting and disconnecting at will.
