Nice!
I like the idea that at least someone is moving towards generic support 
for multiseat.

I have not used RedHat since before Fedora, and I see that the Fedora 
release cycle is 6 months, basing off May.
This means that the upcoming 17 (needed for "generic" multiseat) is 
still 3 months away.
Would anyone care to comment on the stability of using 17 this far in 
advance?
I'm hoping for experiences in the past, rather than the usual: "well, 
you know that there is always a danger of wadda wadda"

Thanks for the heads-up, J.

Kind regards,
Zoltan
