This idea is quite interesting. But what will be displayed in that
position? I'm afraid there is no sense to display "console #" for end
users.
But there is sense to name each virtual console so that each has
meaning full names e.g.:
- log
- /etc/syslog.conf (edition)
- dtrace script
- bash
etc
Of course you will know each console's name as "/dev/vt/#" ( which might
be more meaningful in future ), and you can use these names into any
places if you like.
At present, you can know the status of console login via "who" command,
as what you can do in other systems.
What is more, it would be good to have list of virtual consoles (like in
KVM switches) to switch between them.
We will have a GUI tool in X system to choose different X window if
there are more than one user logged into X via "gdmflexiserver".
For text mode, I think the command line like "vtchange vtno" maybe
more powerful.
