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.

Since you already manage backing store copies, how about taking this concept
and making a navigational aid out of it:

When you switch to a different virtual console, display the text
"console #xx" in row 1 column 65-75 for 1 to 2 seconds, then
replace it with the characters from the backing store.

Extra credit awarded for smooth fade-out :-)
