I don't know about the ssh implementation, but the X protocol just
requires some sort of network protocol, and has in the past been
implemented over DECnet, IPv4, and IPv6 at least (and I think a
few rare experimental protocols).   Adding support for a new network
protocol type is not a trivial task however, including adding support
to the protocol for the address format if you expect xhost +hostname
to work.
