[ Making umpteen copies of Control Panel, renaming and renumbering them
  and then using ChooseCDEV on each one deleted ]

A much easier way would just be to get a copy of HierDA from SUMEX-AIM
(came across comp.binaries about a month or two ago).  HierDA is a nice
little DA that turns your control panel into a hierarchical menu
listing all of your cdevs.  It then opens to  whichever one you've
selected.  Sleek, easy, and clever.
