The .NET Core ecosystem doesn't have a Readline-like library that is of high quality. To be clear, it's not for lack of trying (see Mono.Terminal and ReadLine). Rather, the issue is that System.Console is a poor abstraction for terminal interaction - the entire reason why Cathode exists.

It would be good to provide an additional NuGet package (Vezel.Cathode.Editor?) that provides a line editor based on the core Cathode APIs, and which draws design inspiration from the libraries mentioned above.

Remove the Terminal.Input package.

This is very incomplete and predates some fundamental changes to the core
terminal APIs. This will all have to be done from scratch.
