CLSS - Preserve Session with multiple logon from the same user

Customer have the possibility to activate on PC more than one CL/SS session, but this tool have a different behavior from the Session Manager because it isn't possible to have on the same PC two CL/SS session with the same applications. Using the Session Manager, they use more client 3270 with the same application and when the focus on one application, the other were automatically hide by multisession tools.
This was called SHARESESS function in ISM which means, that each physical session with the same userid will shown the active sessions and the user can take them over. This is not supported within Supersession. The multuser function is a feature within Supersession to login two or more times but not sharing the sessions between.

This is not possible to recreate with CL/SS.

    We would like to further define the Use Case for this RFE as follows. Based on this Use Case we will work towards a solution.
    Use case: After logging-in to multiple CL/SS sessions, a user needs the ability to see the active applications from all of his or her userid's logged-in sessions. And the user needs to be able to switch to any active application belonging to any of that userid's currently logged-in sessions. Please provide the necessary infrastructure to make this possible, at least with customization.
