Heyas! Just saw your hackaday, this is a super cool project.

I once built an arduino VT220 emulator, I wonder if (some of) that could be leveraged somehow?

Thanks! If it does terminal emulation, that is very interesting. It would be amazing in combination with low-enough-power wireless networking, so you could use SSH (via a gateway device). I will not be able to look into it now but I will definitely keep it in mind.

It does emulate a VT220 serial terminal, with some modern XTERM extensions. It can do fairly high baudrates, on a fast enough cpu, supports the DEC graphic charset, programmable keys and has an on screen keyboard (the two devices we built support for only have four physical keys). We never hacked in telnet (over wifi) support, but that should not be that hard...
