I suspect that as soon as much of the hardware pocking is moved from xorg to the kernel and X can be run as a normal user "X-based mingetty replacement" will be just running a x term fullscreen in an autoconfigured X instance. Of course one could theorically write a much lighter solution using only freetype (cairo, pango?) and an xkb-config parser -- Nicolas Mailhot
