TurboVision from the 1980s or 1990s has draggable and overlappable windows inside a single shell/DOS screen. https://tvision.sourceforge.net/tvQNX-pterm-photon

  Yes but that's just writing to the vram directly, just as keyboard and mouse are read directly. Not the madness of going through heaps and loads of batshit crazy terminal extensions, escape codes and decades of cruft and hacks piled upon the tty.

    That's not correct. Tvision has worked in terminals for almost as long as terminals have existed. https://github.com/magiblot/tvision https://github.com/magiblot/tvision
