I use Leo as my primary editor when I *can*.

When I can't is when I'm SSHing into machines remotely where it is often 
not practical (or desirable) to run GUI applications. I believe there was 
some work done on a curses front-end plugin in the past but I'm not sure 
how far that got.

I would eventually like to see a full fledged console front-end for Leo. I 
have no illusions about it popping up by magic.

I would only say, if, by chance, work begins on a new web-based front-end, 
that might be an opportunity to rework/simplify the back-end interface/API 
which would work towards the "leo as a plug-in" long term goal. This might 
make it easier to implement a console front-end with something like urwid.

Emacs can be run in a daemon mode where multiple front-end clients can 
connect to a single instance of an emacs "server". I envision a future Leo 
with a similar capability, where a back-end/front-end protocol is devised 
and you could connect any number and type of front-end clients to the back 
end.
