If someone has started on this, how will the graphics be done? Will it use a standalone SVGAlib, maybe a "generic" SVGA framebuffer, working to the VESA BIOS Extensions v3 or somesuch? The RedHat Grub screen is very nice. Not sure how they did it. Has a nice clean set of widgets. How would Unicode characters be drawn on the screen, would there be a lookup table of bitmap font outlines or something?
