One thing to add:  The handlers (mainly the reverse_tcp handler)
included in Metasploit already support handling multiple sessions.  The
handler used by a given exploit will run until the exploit has completed
and will accept as many connections as possible during that time.  This
is most commonly used in passive exploits, such as browser exploits.
