This smells a bit like PowerShell.

PowerShell streams Objects instead of characters/bytes. But that is more compatible with cmd than sh.

Many other points are more about the terminal emulator. terminiology has some of those features AFAIK.

PowerShell is very close to what I think we need, but even PS is not quite cutting deeply enough. We need to rethink the command line rather than apply band-aids to an idiosyncratic model. Terminology is great, but it cannot solve the fundamental problems at the layers below that.
