Havoc: remind me again of why libzvt is not good enough?  I know it does
not support UTF-8, but are there other big issues with it?  

Since it's been ported to GTK+-2 and is already modular I think it would
likely be an easier target for accessibility, based on a quick
examination, unless it is really fundamentally insufficient for other
reasons... at least for 2.0.
