I don't really understand why tty redirection is interesting !
But it should be just the same : Replace the existing /dev/ttyXX=20
to /var/session/currents/current/ttyXX and then, create the per display l=
ink=20
in /var/session/:0 or /var/session/:1

Then link in /var/session/:X will be used regarding the DISPLAY variable.
