Of course, what do you do when two cars enter together from 6 oclock and the right hand car plans to go straight and the left hand guy intends to turn right from the left lane.

Sorry, you still don't understand. In the example above with two cars entering at 6 o'clock, the car on the inside lane CANNOT exit at 3 o'clock. That car has only two choices, exit at 12 o'clock (straight through) or continue around to exit at 9 o'clock.

But your point about not entering the roundabout until there is not traffic coming from you left in either lane is spot on and perhaps the most critical to safely navigate them.
