What exactly are you talking about here?  AFAIK, the Emacs
architecture didn't change since its inception, so its long history
has no relevance here.  But maybe I'm missing something or
misunderstanding what you intended to convey.

AFAIU, that's already possible from the display engine POV, what's
missing is application-level Lisp code that would take advantage of
the infrastructure.
