Title:
  Sessions dialog can have multiple instances

Status in The GNOME 2 Session Manager:
  Expired
Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  - how to produce - 
  To manage the (startup) sessions from the GUI, the user can startup the 
session manager using the following steps: system > preferences > sessions. 
Open 2 or more dialogs this way.

  - problem - 
  In this dialog the user can choose which services to start (and which not). 
The problem occurs when there are multiple instances open from this dialog and 
when the settings in these dialogs are different (changed by the user). The 
user does not know which settings will be stored, because there are multiple 
dialogs with different settings. 

  - suggestion - 
  make this dialog window a single instance version and refocus this window if 
the user tries to open another window. 

  Let me know if you need more info.

  version: Ubuntu 8.10 using gnome (sorry had no spare machine around to
  test 9.04)
