Unlikely, as the version I've frozen at doesn't have kbd/ms line
disciplines.

I'm also not sure how well it would even work, because making the
keyboard and mouse line disciplines on otherwise ordinary tty lines
means that it's all independent of the device config machinery.  You
could do basically what I did here in userland by opening the real line
as an ordinary tty and setting a few ptys to keyboard/mouse
disciplines, then switching more or less as I did.

I'm also not sure how that would interact with the abort sequence.  You
either have to violate layering or you lose the abort-within-hardint
property.
