Hi Alexander,

Ray and myself worked for multi-seat both on ConsoleKit and GDM side.
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/ConsoleKit/log/?h=multi-seat
http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gdm/log/?h=display-configuration

From my point of view, the whole work is under last development phase.

OpenSolaris used the multi-seat branch for latest two builds, I would 
like to offer test report on Linux
next week. Jon and Ray suppose to start review the process after that. 
Hopefully, the branches can
merged into master and be included in next release.

You can refer to design document[1] and testing document[2] I wrote. 
They are kind of out-of-date, I'll update
them later.

I will be very helpful you can test the multi-seat feature, please feel
