Aside from account sharing being bad security practice and a bad idea in
general, yes, some desktop environments will be more suitable than
others for this.
Of course, running X2GoClient in Published Application Mode (with
--autostart to start the desired application right after the
X2GoClient's login to the X2GoServer) would help avoiding this problem
altogether, because then no remote desktop environment is involved, but
this mode comes with autoresume enabled by default, meaning, if there is
exactly one session in a suspended state, this one will be resumed
instead of a new one being created. To avoid this, you can run
X2GoClient with --no-autoresume as an additional parameter - then it
will always prompt you if you want to resume or create a new one if at
least one suspended session is detected.
