automatically created the first time a user logs in and

the same time, both sessions will see the same
<code class="varname">$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR</code> and the same contents. If
a user logs in once, then logs out again, and logs in again,
the directory contents will have been lost in between, but
applications should not rely on this behavior and must be able
to deal with stale files. To store session-private data in
this directory, the user should include the value of
<code class="varname">$XDG_SESSION_ID</code> in the filename. This
directory shall be used for runtime file system objects such
as <code class="constant">AF_UNIX</code> sockets, FIFOs, PID files and
similar. It is guaranteed that this directory is local and
offers the greatest possible file system feature set the
operating system provides. For further details see the <a class="ulink" href="http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html" target="_top">XDG
