Cool I guess, but why? What’s the use case? Are they trying to bridge the gap between ChromeOS and Android? I know they’re inspired a lot by DeX, which is awesome, but as far as I know that mode is mostly for like desktop-like browsing. Not really for development, which is what you’d use a Linux VM terminal for.
It’s probably just something that one of the AOSP devs wanted (to scratch an itch and all of that). It might also mean they won’t have a GUI app to manage the VM initially and you’ll just use the new Terminal.

Honestly they should just enable user namespaces. That would allow apps to create containers.
