Thanks for your suggestion Peter. But when invoking root-tail on
several log files (typical usage) it doesn't scale:

root-tail --geometry 1920x1200+0+0 --wordwrap \
~/.xsession-errors,yellow, \
/var/log/syslog,white, \
/var/log/apache2/error.log,orange, \
<(ssh root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx tail -F /var/log/kern.log),red, \
<(ssh root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx tail -F /var/log/apache2/error.log),pink, &

etc...

Cheers,
