It used to be planned, but nobody took the job, because X doesn't need
this (see option -sharevts).

If you do that, you can't use vcs. AFAICS, there won't be any on the second seat, and if you switch the first seat back to a vc, it will read input from both keyboards. And what about magic-sysrq? A SAK on either keyboard will kill the primary X won't it?
