Actually, the last created instance is not necessarily obvious -- it's  
dependent on how your panel was initialised.

A better solution is to optimise for the most common case (which is a bit  
of work). You'll need to restrict verve to have one instance per screen  
and verve-focus will focus the verve command line on the invoking screen.
