The numbering can change after initialization due to graphic displays
being inserted at screen 0 and moveing any text screens away for that.
Which makes this non-trivial ...
IMHO a management app is better of *not* using vc, but something else
(pty/unix) which then can be linked to and displayed in a vte (gtk
terminal) widget. One major advantage is that cut&paste works then,
also the qemu terminal emulation on the vc's isn't that great.
cheers,
Gerd
