I agree that it might be difficult to think of cases where multiple initiators would access a Media Changer. Typically such devices are use to move data between the tiers of a Hierarchical Storage Management (HSM). If there was more than one initiator then some attention would be required to synchronisation. My own motivation was to use iSCSI as a poor man's SCSI analyser by capturing the traffic. Hardly a common use case ... To turn the question round, why should the Solaris iscsitgt restrict the commands that can can be passed through to a raw device? The raw device should reject any commands it doesn't recognise.
