Imagine you work at multiscreen console and someone tries to talk you. And talk requests comes to another (not current) screen, so you may even never notice them. Another variant: ncftp2 produce bell when (long) file transfer is done, since you never hear it from another screen, you forced to check it often. I have syscons patch wich delivers all bells to current screen independently of screen they originally comes. It really helps in situation like this. I saw several multiscreen implementations which do the same thing, f.e. 'screen' program notice you when bell comes to another screen. If no objection comes, I plan to commit the patch. -- Andrey A.
