Thats not my experience. I have two Fedora systems (F23 and F25) and can
ssh into F23 from F25 or into F25 from F23 and run graphical programs
without any problems. Each can use a GUI program to access files that I
*know* are only installed on the remote system.

The F25 system is definitely running Wayland but I thought the F23 system
wasn't, hence the both-way logins just now. However since F23 has Wayland
files installed its probably that both systems are running Wayland.
