this is what I would like yet. xfce4-session 0.1.1 allowed us to launch
one session on :0 and N other on :N. I've tried 0.1.4 and now cvs version,
but without result. The only way I've found is:

[/home/matt] matt at frost# cat tvout
#!/bin/sh
xinit /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm -e sh ~/xnest_tv -- :1 -screen Screentv

[/home/matt] matt at frost# cat xnest_tv
#!/bin/sh
Xnest :1 &
setenv DISPLAY :1
xsetroot -display :1 -solid darkblue &
xfce-mcs-manager
xfwm4 --daemon
xftaskbar4 &
xfdesktop &
exec xfce4-panel

but I hate this way and I don't want to downgrade to 0.1.1 since I
port xfce4-session to freebsd I need to test and play with stuff.
