     IBM PC text mode is 256 characters (512 for VGA). Emulating text mode
in graphics mode (read: emulating video adapter character generator) doesn't
increases 8-bit interface to 16-bit interface (neither interface itself, nor
applications possibilities).

     And what next? How this helps for displaying 16-bit unicode (unless you
implement _your_ new interface and support this interface in _your_ new
application)?
