Hi all!
I've found this in the current milestone CHANGELOG:
"IP Address and Client Browser User Agent validations implemented for the
   Security And Privacy Proposal."
If I undersood this well, this (IP address validation) can cause problems when user connects from net with multiple NATs/proxys.
In case of 
use of proxys or NATed gates with round-robin
and
lack or broken connection keep-alive implementation on proxy
or simply connection timeout

such user would get different IP on every reconnect.
