That's pretty much by design. Each checkout is completely independent of
any other checkouts, and CVS does not make any attempt to coordinate
between multiple checkouts. Thus, CVS has not forgotten anything - if your
users go back to the first directory, they'll find that it is currently
"Edit"ed by them.

I am not sure I agree with that. The act of doing a fresh checkout of that
file (either via a new "checkout" or "update -C" or what-not) makes CVS
forget
that you are editing that file. "cvs editors" no longer returns you as an
editor of
that file (regardless of where you run it from - either the first or the
second directory).
Personally, I consider that a bug. I believe I have even seen a patch
submitted
to change this behavior thought I don't remember what the patch did.
