Nothing special here. Modify your /etc/sudoers so that it contains an entry like this:
%sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL, (root) NOPASSWD: /bin/chvt
and then use xbindkeys to bind e.g F8 to switch to console 8 with "sudo /bin/chvt 8", that's all.

Thanks Nik. Took me some time to install and understand, but it works great once you get in correctly.
