Tried to reply your scenario here with latest master:
- one 2.8 geoserver on 8080, layer foo
- one 2.6 geoserver on 8080 without layer foo
- starting qgis with 2.8/foo
- while layer loaded, stop 2.8 and start 2.6
- no problems, only I miss data (off course)

I cannot reproduce it, BUT plz try yourself, maybe it has something to
do with certain settings (like OTF yes/no, special crs, multithreaded
rendering etc etc).

Regards & keep testing the upcoming 2.14 :-)
