This is the only reason Linus fared to try anything in X. (paraphrased

Before I bothered, I just had 10 virtual terminals, and it still
wasn't enough (11 - spare for X, just in case, and 12 for syslog
output). But yea, developing www pages for the masses, usually
requires you to see how it'll look on their end. =)
