Would the need for a pure terminal magit be resolved by the fact that Emacs can run in the terminal? [1] seems to have a solution to obtain a fast starting subset of Emacs and start into magit-status directly.

    emacs -Q -nw --load magit-init.el --eval '(progn (magit-status) (delete-other-windows)'

Would this work in IDE consoles?
