What exactly do you want to have?

* (upon boot, ) run a script that creates a screen with k tabs and
starts k slaves in the screen

* what to do if the screen exists?

* if slave exits (^C, SIGINT, raise Exception) - what should happen to
the tab?
  - close, you don't see the errors
  - become an interactive shell that allows to restart the slave manually

* how should restarting be handled?
  - shutting down all slaves ... may take some time

PS: until piatti gets decommissioned, it could still run 1 or 2 slaves
feeding pejacevic ...
