A similar but worse situation most likely.  There's a lot of gunk that 
assumes that the person logged into the console automatically owns some 
of the devices - a concept that doesn't make much sense in the context 
of a multiuser system that can handle concurrent users.  And I think 
some of that is wired into the GUI parts.  I'd say you are better off 
avoiding that and mounting/unmounting things the way you want.
