I know these are not all equivalent and may have idiosyncracies.
Any others?

Are you serious? This question is way to vague to get an accurate
and useful answer. If I take it from the information provided that
it could be any Linux system with any known software installed and
running, then you must consider things like a web server serving
script output via CGI, and therefore every program that can make
requests to a Web server running on localhost.

Your list already assumes an RSH, SSH, and X server running, so a
Web server isn't much less likely, and then there are lots more
protocols. Telnet of course, if you pipe in the command to run, and
Rexec. Also various SSH clients, Dropbear, PuTTY, Mosh... Surely
you know there are many alternatives to Xterm that support running
commands?

That's on top of the innumerable programs that one way or other
could launch a script only on the local system.
