Auto-spawning VTs requires systemd in practice.  If you're using systemd
you can just use its logind :)

-        <filename>autovt@.service</filename> for the respective VT TTY
-        name, for example, <filename>autovt@tty4.service</filename>.
-        By default, <filename>autovt@.service</filename> is linked to

-        prompts are started dynamically as the user switches to unused

-        VT is already used by some other subsystem (for example, a
