This sounds like a ka-map problem. To help reproduce this so we can
determine whether OpenLayers is a participating culprit in this case:

 * Clear cache
 * Open a map as whichever customer
 * Copy the URL of a tile (right click, copy URL)
 * Open that tile in a new tab/browser window
 * Check to ensure that the URL includes the map= param.
 * Change the map= param to be customer2
 * See if the tile changes.
 
If the answer is 'no', then I think we can start examining ka-map's
tile.php, otherwise, we'll look into why OpenLayers doesn't behave in
the same way.
