Pretty sure encoding it into DOM would take way too many elements and be unnecessarily slow to load.
Someone needs to write an ANSI to CSS converter that can work inline.
Oh the irony.
The irony that 25 year old terminals can render text better than a modern web browser?
At it's core, a browser is a fancy telnet client. How a site decides to present itself is up to the site author...
