Koi doesn't really have a concept of a client "connecting to the server".
Instead clients (via workbench plug-ins) intereact with collaborative
services that run on a server. In some cases it may be meaningful to ask
how many client are currently using a particular service. If this is the
case then the service needs to keep track of active users and provide
messages for querrying the number of active users.
For example, it should be relatively easy to build a service that keeps
track of member of a work group who are have the workbench open on their
machine.
