So it might be that the 'multi-seat' is really a GUI version of what we were doing with PDP-11s back in the 70s and 80s, that is having many terminal plugged in to one box and many people logged in simultaneously and making use of the multi-processing and process separation capabilities of UNIX. Now, with Linux and things like CGROUPS we have better control over that separation and resource management than we ever had with the PDP-11 and the VAX :-) And that kind of management is where the facilities that systemd is addressing is why the multi-seat looks so interesting. I agree - I have looked at Multiseat X quite a lot. Last time I looked it wasn't quite there - I may be wrong. As you say, there is a lot of potential with multiseat- using cgroups to share the resources of a big machine with powerful graphics among a set of remote users.
