[mythtv-users] Multi frontend question

I've got a question based on this setup.
1 backend server with 2 or more tuner cards.
2 or more frontends.
Now lets say the frontend 1 is watching live tv on tuner 1, what is in
place to stop frontend 2 from changing the channel that tuner 1 is
currently tuned to?
What about frontend 1 watching a recorded show, and frontend 2 wanting
to watch the same show but at a different place in the recording. I'm
assuming that this isn't a problem since the file exists and could
easily be served to both frontends.
But given the above scenario, what if frontend 1 decides to delete the
show when they are finished watching it, but frontend 2 is still
watching the show? Would the show be marked to be deleted? Would the
user on frontend 1 be denied?
