[PD] Patch on one display, Gem (and audio) on another.

I'm trying to do something I thought would be simple, but turns out more
tricky than I anticipated.

Here's what I would like to do: I have PD-extended (for now) installed on a
Raspberry Pi 2, which has its own display and own audio interface. What I
would like to do is to remote login into the Pi from a laptop, and write
and manipulate the patch there. Has anyone done something similar? How did
you do it?

In other words: the Pi is on my Wi-FI network with its own IP address. I
ssh into it (with a graphical window) from a macbook. There, if I launch
PD, I can't create a gem window on the PI's primary display. Is that
possible?

Or would it be possible to launch PD from the command line such that the
PD-gui client runs on my remote connection display, but the server runs
"locally" on the pi?

Incidentally, when a [gemwin] gets created, is it "owned" by the pd server
process or the client process?

Many thanks!
