It is problematic - if one changes the size, the change is transferred
to other users. Sometimes there can be a race - for instance when one
uses virt-manager as a client - it has a fixed size, so it keeps
sending a size request matching its size (and possibly overwriting
request from other clients).

A solution may be to accept size request only from one client (or
agent messages in general)


If you find some bugs, please report them.
