I appreciate the innovation happening with TUIs in these modern times. But, aesthetically, I have to say, I like my borders to have some breathing room, which gets lost in this particular treatment.

Would be cool to get borders and lines out of copy/paste

I love this work and everything else Ratatui does but I have to ask: if you're changing the terminal protocol and the terminal itself to do this, why not do something more ambitious; a full monospaced information-dense UI framework, a terminal designed for user interfaces, rather than one designed to replicate the limitations of dumb terminals?

What if, dare I say it, we just served HTML over ssh, and let the browser render a proper UI, instead of layering hacks on top of hacks?
