(main developer of Terminology here)
As stated on https://phab.enlightenment.org/T746, it is not an easy move due to the way the text grid is designed.
I love Terminology, and the entire 90s vibe of EFL and Enlightenment generally. So unashamedly not flat design in a world of Jony Ive / Google Material Design conformity.
It's honestly not the most important limitation of Terminology (except maybe to you). It doesn't support re-ordering or renaming tabs. It doesn't support searching into scrollback. It doesn't fetch terminfo data.
It's still the best terminal emulator out there. Incredibly fast in software-only, even better when hardware accelerated, skinnable and configurable.
