Wow ... have you also thought about my mom's old blue baby iMac G3 which still runs AFAIK? :D And maybe providing a newer Mach kernel for them, too?

Frankly, I quickly reverted from 10.5 when I saw how much that hogged my PPC machines at the time, and I'd hate to keep fighting the uphill battle to do useful things with 10.4 . Not that it wasn't a great OS X version (I probably preferred it even over 10.6), but with Apple linking ObjC to the OS there's less and less "native" software that even builds on it. And if it's to run only cross-platform stuff under X11 (recent Qt versions being unlikely to build) you could just as well set up dual-boot and use the hardware under Linux or FreeBSD.
