Ok, I guess my googling wasn't in vain.
Are people interested in this capability? I'm interested in working on this
feature, with (hopefully) some guidance from emacs developers.
If I wanted to start work on it:
1. Where should I begin?
2. Is it even do-able in terms of complexity, or will it touch the fabled and
scary redisplay engine?
What do people think?
I've have some experience with C and elisp, but mostly an emacs user
till date. Perhaps my chance to contribute back.
regards
