I fail to see how the front end (Web-based, X-app run remotely but displayed
locally or X-app run locally) makes any difference to whether the application
can deal with multiple concurrent users.

Just because the application has a web-based front end hardly makes it less
tied to an application.
Are the users on Linux, Windows or Mac, or a mixture? Web-based makes sense
if you want a non-platform specific frontend, although with recent
improvements in the cygwin-xfree Xserver, X is fairly non-platform specific
nowdays.
