I understand Daro is trying to help but I am having a bit of trouble
with what he is reporting and might have seen two ways to interpret this
which might be causing confusion and preventing this from being fixed.
Misinterpreting bug reports is frustrating for the triagers as well.

1.  can only get one lxsession-logout window open? Because I can open an
lxsession logout window switch to another virtual workspace and then
continue using everything but can't open up another lxsessoin logout
instance then. The upstream gtk2 lxde has been adding these behind the
scense as having two windows open like this would end up using more
memory which is a problem on older hardware. I read through the
changelog of lxsession and I get that it now requires a library for
making unique applications. This I think might be close to the intended
behavior as you are not supposed to be able to launch more than one as
it would take much ram on a lot of the older systems and does running
two logout dialgos serve any practical purpose other than just messing
around. Making this not a singleton application would however make more
ram hungry and if it caused the computers to swap and run slowly which
is part of the reason lxde got developed.

2. Do you try to launch lxsession-logout once and say logout or switch
user log back in again and then can't logout. If so that is a more
serious problem. And would definetly be a bug that needs to be fixed.
