This is a good example of a common problem with free software: we focus
on the fringe cases at the detriment of the common ones (many time the
ratio can be less then 10/90).

Folks that do use multi-seat setups are already more advanced, so those
guys should flip a switch (maybe not even a PA but rather a desktop wide
switch saying "multi-seat"), the default should match peoples
expectations.
