Basically the problem is that in order for this to work on a native
target, that target must be async. Right now there are no async native
targets. I hope to correct that when I've got some more cycles.
This is still a very, very tricky situation, though. While many programs
will work with just this target output, I would suspect that many
applications simply won't work (well) this way. Imagine trying to debug
emacs or vi -- the developer is almost certainly going to want to use a
separate tty for the inferior. Unless the UI developer is willing (or
crazy enough) to implement a terminal emulator in the IDE/GUI, these more
sophisticated programs just aren't going to work properly.
