Oh yes. We want to have an API where clients (i.e. programs running in the terminal) can receive actual key/pointer/touch events if they choose to. The terminal may retain control over a few crucial keysequences (similar to how Ctrl-Alt-Del is always handled by the OS on Windows), but it has to inform the client about that.

Very good to hear! That alone makes me root for you guys.

Edit: BTW: If you really get a project going, make sure to inform us how to chip in (at least in monetary way, if nothing else. I'd like to be able to pay anyone who tackles this a beverage of their choice ;-) ).

As soon as the project is at a point where we feel comfortable showing it to a wider audience, we'll make a proper announcement and post it to HN (among other places).
