I would really appreciate to see this issue fixed or integrated in kdm.

I ran into problems at work, as one of my employees accidentally started
a second graphical KDE session after switching a user (instead of just
switching back to the first session). The result was that KMail had been
stared twice and the second Instance downloaded mails as well as the
first one, causing collisions in my local maildir (and nobody knew why
;-).

I think it would not really be necessary to forbid multiple graphical logins 
per user completely. But I think at least a warning should pop up, asking the 
user if he actually wants to create a second (or third …) graphical session or 
rather switch to the already open one.
On the other hand, one could simply make a checkbox in systemsettings teeling 
if or if not to allow multiple graphical logins. Perhaps also a second one if a 
warning should be displayed or not.

I don’t think that opening multiple graphical sessions is what most
users want to.
