There are some issues with running several instances of the xserver. The idea 
behind the "xephyr multiseat solution" is to take advantage of the xserver 
module called RAC (Resource Access Control).

Currently, there's people working on a vga arbiter, that will allow several 
instances of the xserver to run without stepping in each other's toes. They 
released some code [0] that you could help to test.
