I suppose put out on a mailing list how many users still use VT’s and get a 
response. You’ll get a large number that do. A lot of people still use modems. 
I’m sure if a lot of people didn’t complain about needing the feature, it 
wouldn’t be a reality. Remember, there are billions of people on this planet 
with millions of hardware configurations, and most of them are probably not 
what you are using.
