No that's not possible, the console does panning on the
framebuffer, we do too for double buffering fullscreen modes.

covers the whole DirectFB desktop area so it looks like the
original linux terminal ;-) Then you could start applications
(only threads yet) that are displayed half transparent on top
of the terminal. Any volunteer? 8-)
