DGD can do that, no question, the problem that I see is the following: usually
browsers and the webserver terminate their connections after all data for the
moment is transmitted and reopen them when the client requests new data. You
can't change this behaviour, so you need some means to identify the client with
the right session on the server. And you neverever can tell who is logged in
just from looking at the connection objects.
