With widget toolkits that do the rendering on the server (as opposed to pushing X objects over the network and leave the rendering to the client) X2Go does not perform so well. According to http://vizzzion.org/blog/2013/07/the-next-kubuntu-graphics-stack/ Kubuntu 14.10 will ship with KDE Plasma Workspaces 2 (QT5) that depends on wayland. Will x2go be relevant in this setup? the name suggests a dependency of X.

Probably not or if then very slow. X2Go does not handle desktop shell that do the rendering server-side very well. With widget toolkits that do the rendering on the server (as opposed to pushing X objects over the network and leave the rendering to the client) X2Go does not perform so well.
