Each CometActor has a name. You can have multiple CometActors with
different names that represent different components. In the Lift chat
example on the Chat page, there are two separate components. The second one
is identified with:
<lift:comet type="Chat" *name="Other"*>Chat Text</lift:comet>
Please note the "name" attribute.
For each page that you render, you can write a snippet or something that
does: def myNextCometGuy = <lift:comet type="Chat" name={randomString(20)}
/>
The big issue will be closing the comet actors down. I've been planning to
put an optional timeout in CometActors (basically allow them to shut down if
they haven't had a listener attach to them in N minutes.) If you need
this feature, please open a defect at http://github.com/dpp/liftweb/issues
