Yes it's actually quite hard to see a system with more then one 
jtag_uart. It has to be a system with multiple interconnected FPGA's 
since each FPGA has one jtag interface and you can run just one 
jtag_uart per jtag interface.
But it's impossible so...
Not quite sure what the final solution should look like...
