We would like to introduce an incremental parsing phase (see tree-sitter).
Because, when you have tokens (which may be as simple as words) or an AST,
completion / suggestion / highlighting / validation become easy.
So we need to send events to a lexer/parser, update Document accordingly.
And fix Completer / Hinter / Highlighter API such as they have access to Document.
See lex_document.
Currently, performance is poor because, most of the time, we refresh the whole line (and prompt). We would like to transform events on prompt/line/hint into partial repaint.
See termwiz design (Surface).
See replxx refresh delay (_lastRefreshTime) or python-prompt-toolkit max_render_postpone_time.

We would like to support user defined actions that interact nicely with undo manager and kill-ring. To do so, we need to refactor current key event dispatch.
See replxx design (ACTION_RESULT, action_trait_t).
On Unix platform, we assume that auto_right_margin (am) is enabled.
And on Windows, we activate ENABLE_WRAP_AT_EOL_OUTPUT.
But on Windows 10, ENABLE_WRAP_AT_EOL_OUTPUT and ENABLE_VIRTUAL_TERMINAL_PROCESSING seems to be incompatible.
We assume that ANSI colors are supported. Which is not the case on Windows (except on Windows 10)!
