Not a capture, but you can rig it up manually.

I put at the bottom of my ~/.screenrc file:

  source .screen.terms

The file ~/.screen.terms contains lines like...

  sessionname terms
  screen -t aharriso 0
  screen -t root su
  screen -t server1 ssh server1.example.com
  screen -t server2 ssh server2.example.com
  screen -t server3 ssh server3.example.com
  ...  etc

It's not necessary to put the lines in a separate file, but I have a
couple of different .screen.terms files that I pick right from the
screen command prompt.

Also, since you're using lots of windows, you may find this rebinding helpful.

  # remap w to the selectable list
  bind w windowlist -b
  bind W windows
