This is a situation that I would like to fix sometime, and it has been on the todo list for quite some time. Fortunately, it is "normally" one person who runs the restores from a single console, and in that case, even if he runs multiple restores there are unlikely to be any problems as the restore.bsr file is immediately sent off to the FD when the restore job starts.
