It is possible, yes, but this probably poses security questions to share a common instance. > I think that the problem could already be solved if we created (via > systemd) a UNIX domain socket (file socket). Yes, it could create it in the xdg user directory. > Would that work and have any advantage? It is probably a good long-term way to go, so it can both be auto-started and be per-user. Ideally, this would be discussed with upstream, but upstream doesn't seem to be very alive :/ In the meanwhile, we can carry patches in Debian. Samuel
