Yes I agree, it is not a very good idea after all.

Maybe we could copy the old behaviour by mapping the Xrandr identifier
to an integer going from 0 to screen count.

For example,

Xrandr id -> Ratpoison id
0x47         0
0x48         1
0x49         2

Then we would use this ratpoison id to identify screens in sdump,
sselect and sfrestore commands.
