A quick fix for this would be to use the Xauth file of the running/calling user.

The emulator.py should call 'xauth add <$display> . <random 128bit/32hex char>', and then Xephyr can be called without the '-ac' flag.

The Xephyr server still listens on the TCP/IP ports, but does not allow others to connect unless they have imported the same key to their Xauth file.
