With voice commands, what happens during a spouse/sibling fight over channel selection or other uses? If one person is playing a game, can another person that has the biometric ID set up come in and take over? Is there a hierarchy in control or total chaos?

I suppose it would be similar to the existing scenario: the person already playing a game or watching TV gets pissed off at the person changing the channel or pausing their game. I can totally see this with kids and their siblings, but is this really a common issue between spouses? Not that I have tons of faith in people, but I would really imagine most adults were above that.
