The server can always refuse to allow multiple connections.

Sure, but it would be neater to warn the client of that at negotiation
stage (it would only be one flag, e.g.  'multiple connections
unsafe').

I suppose that's not a bad idea.

Seems like it may need to be a per-export flag, rather than a global
flag (as a given server may be able to serve multiple types of files,
where the safety depends on the type of file being served).
