any chance of session-limit settings varying according to role?

Description

The v6.0 upgrade is great, but ideally I'd like to be able to vary the number of allowed sessions per role. Automated Logout doesn't help as it only allows either 1 or unlimited sessions.

Any chance of this?

It's not an unwelcome feature, but I don't have a use for such a thing, so I probably won't write it. If someone else writes a patch, I don't have a problem with it being in the module.

If you mean form settings, maybe this will help: http://drupal.org/project/personalized_settings

My understanding was that he wants to be able to let admins have up to 4 sessions at a time, user admins 2, and regular users only 1 (example).

Yes, that's what I'd like. Some of our clients have individual accounts for which we'd allow 1 simultaneous session, but this isn't an issue for internal users so they should have no limit, to avoid unnecessary admin and complaints.

For what it's worth, I'd like to also mention my interest in this feature. My use case would involve giving an institution paid access to a site where they could buy a single login for all of their users, which would mean paying for multiple sessions. This feature seems to be the only thing missing from Drupal modules, and if it doesn't appear here, I suppose amember pro would be the way to go? Thank you for your help.
