That's a wsmux issue - this should be quite independent from
the virtual screen stuff.
(I've got some problems with wsmux too, but didn't have time
to understand how things are supposed to work.)

No, wscons doesn't assume this. At least on i386, X runs
with only the console screen (what you get with wscons
not enabled in /etc/rc.conf).

That's for simplicity of the display driver. X can take over the
one and only screen -- at least wscons allows it.
