I don't classify it as a problem, it's just an interesting idea.
When I use RSA authentication with ssh-agent, and I use more
multiscreens, I used to have run more instances of ssh-agent. I
said there's nothing wrong with that, but there may be more
convenient just to connect to the pipe of already-running
ssh-agent from another multiscreen than typing always my RSA
passphrase. I know that there may be a security hole with some
pseudotty's or serial lines, that may use my login and password
(which is simplier to obtain than a RSA passphrase) and also
connect to a pipe, but limiting this to specified group of
terminals could solve this problem.

Any ideas ?
