I don't know if this is quite what you want, but ConMan, the
console handler by William Hawes can be mounted as a pipe handler and
may provide what you are looking for.  How exactly would you expect a
"true" pipe handler to work, without significant cooperation from the
shell that is using the pipes.  Conman is on a fish disk somewhere
back there in the less than 300 range, maybe even less than 200.
