I still can't get my head around this. How does this change make any sense? If I am an IDL licensee, with IDL installed on my desktop, I should be able to run multiple IDL programs simultaneously. So called "Multi-tasking" as been a standard feature of most operating systems since the early 1990s! Moreover, with IDL's already very limited support for multi-core / parallel operation, for some applications the only reasonable approach is to run multiple sessions.

I would like to see some movement from Harris on this.
