We all gotta start somewhere :) I didn't have time to look at the
code, but it sounded like you what you were doing. Did you properly
deal with non 80x25 tty widths and heights?

block the calling process until tty is no longer stopped

possibly the framebuffer and vgacon stuff. I haven't looked at it
very close, but it pretty much obsoleted the need for my multimon
patch.
