(Get the code!)
1) I think that the "seat" part of a multiseat system can be merged into the "computer" part as far as the GUI is concerned. So I don't think there's need to add extra label options, only to put the seat name/number as a suffix after the computer name.
2) Each of those root terminals has access to a different display, that of the user sitting in that seat. So if the epoptes user selected many seats and clicked on that menu, maybe he wants to do something with each seat separately, we can't assume that he only wanted one terminal even though he selected many...
The worst problems with multiseat are that (a) there are many different implementations and (b) the developers have no access to any multiseat system to test with. So we have no clue about how the seats are named, if they're static or dynamic etc.
It'd be nice if there was some person with access to multiseat systems that could contribute code patches.
