Depends on your definitions of "easy" and "human". ;-)

xscope is probably the best answer right now. The only source I know for
it is the xscope module in Keith's CVS repository:
	http://keithp.com/cvs.html

xscope has a number of problems, including that it often changes the
behavior of the client or server under study, and that it can be a
little bit difficult to set up. You can use Ethereal's X11 protocol
dissector instead, for a non-invasive examination; unfortunately, that
didn't handle X replies well, last I checked.

Josh, maybe you want to say something about your work in this area?
