Hey glyph, I am planning on not removing these backends until their unique features are available in the main backend. A big part of the deprecation messages is that we can gather information on differences and usecases for the various current backends and consolidate them.

I'd be interested in what support would be ideal for you @glyph, is it good embed behavior + twisted event loop? Just the event loop integration?

Edit: (in order to assess whether there is a way to support your use case with curtsies or whether maintaining the urwid version is important for that)

This is great to hear, thank you!

I have some janky stuff that connects it to the event loop in my python startup. It looks like this:

Mainly I just want the event loop integration though, so that I have the ability to build something like that.
