Would be great to update the interface to return the view with additional color and style information (text color, background, bold/italic/etc) also in a simple JSON format (so no dealing with color-related escape sequence either), and the frontend could render this using HTML (e.g. with styled pre/span tags, similar to how asciinema-player does it) or with SVG.
