Uh, you just nest screen sessions.
The outer one is local, the inner ones are on the far end of SSHs.

If you have :caption always or :hardstatus alwayslastline,
the window titles are effectively tabs.

You can't "click" on them,
but you can ^A1 or ^A' or ^A" to jump to a specific one by number or name,
or ^A^A/^ASPC/^A^H to jump around.

If you're only using screen as dtach,
you're missing most of its functionality.
