The one that comes last wins. The last session will do auto-saving,
the previous won't. At least, there should be no conflict of both sessions
trying to auto-save to the same file, because auto-saving checks the ownership.
The conflict might occur when during exiting both sessions will try writing
to the same file. I see nothing in `desktop-kill' that would prevent saving
to a non-locked desktop, except the question "Save desktop?"
