Comment (by waddlesplash):
It is big chance that multiple users will use the same font with the
same size so rasterized font cache can be reused.
Except at present, app_server presumes that fonts will be rendered with
the same anti-aliasing settings. I don't think it presently supports
rendering fonts with antialiasing enabled but different settings. So that
is one area where massive changes would have to be made in order to
support multiple users with different settings.
Similarly, desktop colors. Presently app_server presumes there is just one
set of them. If different users have different colors, then app_server
will have to be seriously reworked to handle that. Likewise for color
changes, app_server just broadcasts them to all applications currently
running. If one user changes colors, then app_server must know that and
only broadcast to the one user's applications and not all the others.
Likewise for font changes and other such settings, which now must be
stored and broadcasted on a per-application basis.
