But I *NEED* the VT to be able to choose whether keyboard/mouse events
go to the server or to the linux console.

The *video* driver don't. The *input* driver do. And in this situation
the user will expect that to happen, just like it does when a screen is
plugged.

The dummy driver is a *video* driver, not an *input* driver. If you want
non-privileged X, you also need to use a non-privileged input driver.
