Can I connect two emacs/slimes to the same swank instance?

clojure swank server opens public port?

(This question has been downvoted, which I find strange. How have I offended?) Am I right to think that running a swank server usually opens port 4005 to the world, not bound to localhost-only connections? So anyone hacking in a café is not only…
