Bug Description

I haven't inspected any code yet, but it would be nice if you could expose something in the UI to run the equivalent of "vncviewer -listen". If you're unfamiliar, it's a very helpful command that listens, by default, on port 5500 for vnc servers that connect out to your listener. The equivalent of x11vnc -connect would be the server side of things which vino will soon have support for in 2.24.

Gitso accomplishes this listening, but it's a bit buggy yet as it leaves zombie processes after it os.spawns (vncviewer -listen). http://code.google.com/p/gitso/
