Beckemeyer himself recently reported on CompuServe that he is working on
support for desk accessories in a future version (the current is 2.62, I
believe).  By the way, the MT/C-Shell is completed and will be shipped
within days, according to his office.  Apparently they are finishing up
the documentation.  The multitasking capabilities will, among other things,
allow the use of well-behaved TOS programs from a remote system that has
vt52 emulation (no termcaps at first, he says -- sorry).  Sounds intriguing.
