Well I had forgotten I had pretty much what I was looking for in the
Corestore collection already!

Two terminals the size of small pizza boxes using external VGA
displays. On top, an IBM 3483 coax 3270 terminal, on the bottom a DEC
VT525 serial terminal.
Now all I need is to find VGA LCD displays about the size of those
boxes - say 10" or 12" diagonal, suggestions??? - and maybe a few more
terminals - and we're pretty much in business!
One issue with the VT525 is that you might have to experiment with a
few different LCD monitors to find one that produces an acceptable
display, especially if you want to use 132 column mode.
The last time I tried this with the LCD monitors I happened to have on
hand a ViewSonic VP2000s, a Samsung 931B, and a Dell 1704FPTT all
produced unacceptable results while an older ViewSonic VP150 did
reasonably well.
