The server handles this strangely.  All it sends to the client 
that is being disconnected is this:
<stream:error>Disconnected</stream:error>

I suspect that Jarl just automatically tries to reconnect when
it gets disconnected for some unknown reason.  If the server made
it known that the reason a client was disconnected was because
of the other signin, the a client could know not to reconnect.

It would be nice if the server indicated the Disconnect reason,
with something like:
<stream:error reason="duplicate">Disconnected</stream:error>

It might also be nice if the server sent the IP of the connection
that booted the other off.  Clients can then tell the user the
IP that booted them off.

<stream:error reason="duplicate" from="1.2.3.4">Disconnected</stream:error>
