I have a Very Big Use Case here: on my Android devices I run Termux, which runs nearly everything perfectly but only in terminal mode. I run Emacs/org-mode this way on my Android tablet all the time when out of the house or traveling. The mixed pitch idea has great merit, don't get me wrong, and would be a very nice thing indeed on my native Linux devices. But I'd hope there would be no "unintended consequences" for terminal users. -- Bob Newell Honolulu, Hawai`i - Via Gnus/BBDB/Org/Emacs/Linux
