That's fantastic, and hopefully will go a long way toward making VTE even more widely used than it already is.

One reason people still use slower and less standards-compliant terminal applications is that VTE has been fairly slow.

Hopefully VTE will work on better Unicode support soon (though it's already one of the best on Linux, except that its ligature/emoji support could use work).

Why not plan in advance for GTK5 ? /s
