I'm not sure if it's what you want, but Fedora Core 3 supposedly has now
a similar feature. See

http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-desktop-list/2004-June/msg00007.html.

A snippet from their description:

  "The idea is that we allow GDM to accept VNC connections, spawn a VNC
   server for each new connection and display a login screen. The user then
   authenticates through the login screen as normal and GDM starts a new
   session on the VNC server. However, if you then close your VNC client,
   the session doesn't go away. GDM continues to manage that session.

   You may then go to a different terminal, the server will spawn off a
   new VNC server with a login screen through which you log in. However,
   once you log in, GDM detects that you already have a session running and
   switches you to your original session rather than starting a new
   session."
