That is quite odd, but I've confirmed it under 10.5.2. In 10.5 I can
ssh to another Mac and /usr/bin/open a document. If I have a GUI login
already established on that Mac, I can see (via screen sharing) the
application is launched and the document handled. But here's the odd
part -- if I *don't* have a GUI login on that Mac, the application for
the document is *still* launched, but I guess it's running in some
sort of headless mode. I don't recall 10.4 operating this way.

But this is neither here nor there. AFAIK, SECURITYSESSIONID is unique
to OS X and it reliably indicates that the user is sitting in front of
the OS X GUI.
