This is true if the next client edits a file using the same name and path as
the first.  If it chooses a different name, both buffers can co-exist.

Once the Emacs edit session in the server buffer is completed, I see no reason
to save the server buffer any more.  The variable server-temp-file-regexp (in
Emacs 19.xx) allows you to identify which buffers are known to be created by
the server and are to be deleted automatically after the server is done with
them. 

  server-temp-file-regexp

  Documentation:
  *Regexp which should match filenames of temporary files
  which are deleted and reused after each edit
  by the programs that invoke the emacs server.

Hope this helps.
