I love the display system
<https://github.com/one-more-minute/Blink.jl/blob/master/src/graphics/system.jl>
in Blink. This makes much more sense than the current display stack
mechanism. First, it lets you show things on different (even multiple)
displays. Second, classification of output as Tabular, Graphical and
Textual (and finer classifications) is really useful, something the current
display stack based mechanism lacks.

Very much for moving it into Base!
