If I understand what you mean, that is not the reason and there is no
such lookup() function AFAIK...

It may already be clear, but just to make sure, the 0 is there simply
because the monitor IDs are a sequence starting from 0 for each display
channels. So 0 is simply the ID of the first monitor.

If you're asking about the greater purpose "why", I can only guess
nobody cared enough to come up with a robust solution, which is what
I'm trying to do now, because as the situation complicates, this is
starting to fail.

The IDs indeed refer to different entities. The “channelID ? channelID
: headID” computation is on the client, it is clearly wrong and was
working so far only under the assumptions that:
1) the monitors on the guest match 1:1 to monitors on the client
2) there is either one display channel with one or more monitors or
more display channels with exactly one monitor

Good idea! :)
