Another comment on the inconsistent handling of shared caches.
The screen saver and ssh (if fixed) would only updates the TGT
with a newer TGT.

But kinit -R updates the TGT, AND discards all the other tickets.
So something as simple as (kinit -R ; aklog) could be used to get
a long lasting token after a scree unlock.

So if Sun has applications that are sensitive to not finding a ticket
in a shared cache, you need to look at effects of kinit -R being run
in some other session too.

Yes, but I think there should also be a way of acquiring a TGT from outside of the session. For example; processes that are long running or delayed execution could use credentials acquired from another mechanism, such as from password authentication or delegation.
I haven't looked recently but in general there have not been cohesive sessions to tie processes (and kernel actions) to unless auditing is enabled.
