How about a windowing terminal emulator?  You would have several windows
on the ST, and a protocol for multiplexing several logical connections
over one serial line.  On the host, you have a driver for multiplexing
the output of several processes onto one line.

In this situation, it would be easy to want to have output in several
windows at once.

Or how about a terminal emulator with a built in editor?  It would be nice
if I could edit some text in one window, and then tell the terminal
emulator to send it.  While I am doing this, I would still want to see
any stuff that comes in from the host, even though that window would
not be on top.
