Please note that this would have to mirror most of the
input handling in mosh:

- line-wise editing only works for application that wait for an input 
line

- so ncurses-applications (vim, emacs, iptraf, top, ...) resp.
   applications that wait for single key presses (raw mode?) need to be
   detected somehow

- a lot of inputs (everything outside [\x20-\x7e] needs to flush the
   buffer - cursor movements, escape, tab (for completions!), control
   sequences, etc.


I'm not sure whether ssh with its simple stream input / stream output
model works here - mosh is a complete terminal emulator because of
these complications!
