You could end up trying to run it twice if login 2 restores the same session 
currently running/restored in login 1.  The safety check catches this case

'Avoid' is a bit strong here.  It's more of a case of gotchas than risks.

DISPLAY, that way you can access your files, have a separate KDE config for 
the smaller NX display and avoid all the gotchas.
