IIRC, you can righ-click on the session card in X2Go Client and then  
you _always_(TM) get the running/suspended session selector widget  
before actually connecting to the session.

I just heard that once from Heinz or Alex, never verified it, though.

Furthermore, I think we face different use cases here.

I agree with Mihai, that it is awkward, landing in a session that one  
maybe does not want. I often run multiple sessions of the same desktop  
type for the same user. More often, multiple sessions of different  
session types for the same user (which also fails due to X2Go Client  
auto-connecting). However, I am not bothered by that isssue as I use  
PyHoca-GUI, not X2Go Client.

So, for X2Go Client as a thin client in multi-user environments, you  
surely surely what the session auto-resuming behaviour. Also on  
machines that have smart card readers in place for authentication.  
Various setups that we have to consider here.
