Ok I got the split xfrun working fine but tested only on one 
display/screen setup.
It is not clear to me how xfrun4 and the rundialog service provider can 
be on different X displays. Isn't the dbus session-bus a per session 
thing which is not seen from other X displays? That's why I asked 
whether we are interested in screen only or display too.

right now the xfrun invocation will send something like :0.1 to 
xfrun-background which will pop the window up on screen 1 of display 0
since it was started under the X server which owns display 0.

I feel I am still missing something :)
