That's also what I mean.

That's what I don't mean. If I switch to the same user on VT2 I want a
*new* session. If I switch back to VT1 I continue with the old session.
If both VTs are in the same login session, I don't see the point of
this if we already have virtual desktops and Activities (in fact I've
never really seen the point of Activities either, but never mind).
