If you apply the patch I just sent out, this is doable with a shell
script + some tricks.

I think of something like this:

(vscreen-cycle.sh)
#! /bin/sh

t=$(ratpoison -c vscreen)
t=${t# Virtual screen }

t=$(expr $(expr $t + $1) % 8)
ratpoison -c "vscreen $t"

And alias vscreen_rel to exec vscreen-cycle.sh

To be honest, vscreen_rel might better be outside of RP, since it is
rather trivial to implement it that way.

/me is about to give those a whirl.
