One day; one day some enlightened soul will write a Command Line Application (as opposed to a terminal emulator) allowing all the goodies of the DOS command line and its frame buffer with none of the downsides; then we will not need curses/ncurses/etc anymore but a simple and sane drawing context unchained from the terminal protocols.
We can then easily write beautiful TUIs for the command line, with easy and ergonomic random screen access and all the nice things, and leave the terminal for actual terminal operations.
