I'm not really a UI guy, so I was checking what I might have lost by disabling VTE and found the very old [1]. That list of features really seems to make disabling VTE not an real option:
  "It's also screen reader accessible, supports copy/paste, proper scrolling and
   most of the other features you would expect from a terminal widget."

After seeing that Cole authored the "drop PTY" [3] patch I have subscribed him here as well.

I have tried to answer and ask a few questions on the VTE issue [2] to get it make progress, but it would really benefit getting the attention of Gerhard and Cole (or anyone else who feels the UI-power).
