Some estimates out there put GNOME on LTSP as having double-digits
market shares of all GNOME deployments. IIRC about 37%. I don't have any
links to back this up right now though. It's kinda funny, you're very
defensive about keeping compat etc, but seem to ignore "pet projects"
like f-u-s, multi-seat and LTSP... anyway...

ConsoleKit knows about Sessions and Seats. HAL will assign ACL's based
on this. It needs a bit more work (definition of seats and what devices
belongs to what seats etc.) so not going to happen for F7. There's also
the X.org and Linux VT subsystem to keep in mind. But it's not really
hard.

FWIW, it came up last week on GNOME's desktop-devel-list
