I've read it, and again take a close look to the output of ck-list-sessions.

I see that I did mix session and seat. The session for me, as user 
logging into KDE is another session
than the one pointed to kwrited, but they belong to the same seat. So 
there is no extra seat created for kwrited.

But then again, why is an apart session created only for kwrited?
