that is not good.
I wouldn't expect otherwise. Seems to me like it would be a recipe for ongoing personal settings data save collisions if any DM facilitated it, unless *maybe* the 2nd were a different session type, e.g. Gnome vs. KDE or XFCE.
First, this is not a good explanation for why parallel sessions should not / are not allowed. Unix/linux systems have allowed multiple sessions for ages, and it was/is not a problem for regular shell logins. Why should it be different for graphical logins?
Second, I never had any problem with using multiple sessions with KDE3.
Third, it is only speculation at the moment that KDE4 does not allow multiple sessions on design purpose. It can be a bug, a bad configuration etc.
Fourth, it it was the case, why two vnc sessions are allowed?
In this case there is no *DM involved, vncserver starts them directly. This could make a difference.
It would be good to know the opinion of a KDE developer who is familiar with login sessions.
I would appreciate if others tried out whether they can login on console when vnc session is running, to make sure this problem affects others too, not only me.
Thanks
