Why? What's the advantage?

See this wiki page. Ideally you'd have tabs in the terminal and GNU screen screens be the same thing, so that making a new screen in screen makes a new tab in the terminal, and vice versa. The effect would be to have terminals that never die (because they morph into detached screen sessions). Plus screen's history and the terminal's should be merged and so on. I want this for konsole now, but I guess it'll have to wait until the screen library API stabilizes. :)

Exactly. Plus, you could attach to your terminal windows remotely. Or have multiple gnometerms/konsoles/etc attach to the same set of terminal sessions.
