Package: workrave
Version: 1.6.2-1
Severity: minor

If workrave is executed multiple times, all new instances will run concurrently. Each of them puts an additional icon into the tray, and
they can individually be stopped. If I try to click one of the icons to
open the window, I can see some flicker before the window is shown. I
think that it would be better if only one instance would be allowed to
run at a time. I don't know the exact mechanisms in Linux to do this,
but I'm sure this is possible and most sensible applications do it.

I ran across this situation when I switched to KDE: after startup the
session manager would load an extra workrave instance "from the last
session" in addition to the one that was started explicitly in my
.xsession script.
