Nothing supports behavior like that, but very few things seem to have *real* 
problems.  I frequently encounter users who have multiple VNC sessions to the 
same machine, and when I tell them they shouldn't do that, they most often say 
"Oh, I didn't know."

Why don't you just create one session and reuse it?  For example, create a VNC 
session, and just keep connecting to the same VNC session from all your 
different clients?
