You've just described the user interface to every cloud server I use.

0) ssh to server

1) run screen -RD

2) run user emacs in one screen, run user shells in emacs

3) run root emacs in another screen, run root shells in emacs

4) run top in another screen

5) run nvitop in another screen on gpu servers

6) try to remember not to leave tail -f foo.log running in any shells or server explodes after six months
