Possibly.  However, at least one proposal for implementing that leaves
most of the infrastructure intact.

Not really, no.  Not to such an extreme degree.

If someone comes up with a suggestion for how to refactor the display
code to make its maintenance easier, I think we will welcome that.
But we cannot reject other enhancements because of the complexity of
what we have.  That complexity didn't prevent us from implementing
several display-related enhancements in the recent years, and I don't
see why this particular one should be an exception.
