Finding all the right skills in one person is not really necessary, since there are plenty of smart people interested in solving these issues. Ideally, one would like to have a meeting to get all the right people with all their diverse skills sitting down in one place for maybe two or three days. A sort of "Linux Console Development Retreat". Once the issues and direction have been hashed out on blackboards and agreed upon by participants, it would be relatively straightforward to focus on implementation. Having a Console Retreate is probably not so easy to do in reality, with developers scattered across the globe.
