I have a very specific use case: I want to have a UI interface around images generated by the kitty graphics protocol. Kitty, the terminal emulator, can render images in full resolution, which has been so helpful for viewing plots over ssh. I made a hacky ui for generating plots as I need them using prompt-toolkit, but having a proper TUI library that supports images would be so much nicer

This sort of thing is on the development roadmap. Also, some people have been building their own version of this with Textual already. Few days ago someone was showing off a Textual app they’d built that would play video - using the kitty protocol IIRC.
