Would love to get any suggestions for what people would like to see rendered inline in the terminal. Things like graphs, audio/video streams, filesystem view (that supports drag&drop from your local machine), graphviz, pdfs. Maybe a graphical way to view a JIRA or Github issue and add a comment? Visual diff? Let me know what you think?

Docs! I want to be able to query for, say, godoc or python API docs and get a compact rendering of it.

I wonder if we could render html inline now as you can do images and other others? Same thing for Markdown for example. My dream would be to basically move everything into the console, but I need graphical applications these days for interacting with others at work etc.

yes! would love to do this. the biggest issue is security and how to sandbox that html from the rest of the terminal. we have some ideas on how to do this (iframes, postMessage, etc.) that i think could work.
