Up for another "bizarre" idea?

It sounds like you're actually using a video-card text mode for the
text-entry mode ...  Are you?  Can't you create your own "sprites" for an
ASCII font and use them for "text" in your graphics console mode?  You can
make them see-through that way.  Didn't you say your text was see-through
... ?  If you've done it this way, I don't understand what the problem is.
