Request/possible bug fix: better detection of amount of games running

I have many opponents leaving the game and start a new one straight away – able to have multiple, non-correspondence live games running at once.

It must be a bug since it seems like lichess is already doing something to prevent multiple games running – also preventing people leaving classical games to let opponent wait X minutes.
By "leaving the game" do you mean they refuse to make further moves? Personally as long as my opponent continues moving I don't mind how many active (non-correspondence) games they have.
I don't think principally you should be able to start another classical/blitz game when you're already in one. Most of the time your opponent leaves when he's lost positionally and you'll sit and wait for the timer to run out. Not fun for either party.
Agree to #3 if they want to play multiple games at once they should start a simul
