I think I've seen that before. I'm pretty sure firefox (and its variants)
open a new window of the currently running process (for the
same user) if it exists.

If you try running firefox a second time, before the first is loaded, it will
tell you that firefox is already running and fail to load. Back then
I couldn't find a way to get it running over two x sessions. I don't
don't remember finding any command line option (`sudo -u user2 firefox`
doesn't count) which solves that.
