I have looked before and come up dry.  Several notes come to mind:

1. The link between terminals would likely have to be done in the tty device
driver.  There are only about 8 skillion of these for different vendor 
tty boards.   

2. If the two terminals were different types, translation would be needed. 
Messy.   Requiring Helper and Helpee to have identical terminals reduces
potential market. 

Sorry.   Lemme know if you get lucky.
