[Interest] Qt application trespassing on OS X

[René J.V. Bertin]

Hello,

I just noticed that Qt applications can trespass on (and possibly hijack) the local screen ("console") on OS X, regardless of who's logged in there. When a user (B) connected over SSH or some other means to a system on which another user (A) is logged in locally, Qt applications launched by user B will display on user A's display. They are not fully functional (no menubar, and an error is printed concerning the pasteboard), but they probably should refuse to start at all, for the protection of both users. That at least is what native applications do.

Thoughts?
