It seems like what you really wanted was a streaming SVG renderer and not a VTE.

I kind of like that idea.

How do you mean? I'm actually not a fan of terminal image protocols like Sixel and Kitty's image protocol. I value the constraints of only being able to use text. I feel that in some ways when we venture into real graphics the soul of the terminal is lost.

    Maybe I'm confused, I guess this is more an aesthetic thing than a practical thing. I just see VTEs as a minimal UI API for software.
