That one crossed my mind as well. There may be some way to peak at what the SSH user is seeing and show that on the iLiad screen. Considering how long Unix/Linux have been around I would think/hope that there is some kind of software that would work in that way.
I've also wondered if maybe VNC (or something similar) could be used. Run a VNC client on the iLiad to act as a display for another computer that has a normal keyboard. This would also be useful as a hack to run a normal web browser (or just about any app except those that use video) via another computer and display the results on the iLiad. It wouldn't be nearly as convenient as running an app natively, and you're bound to a local network running a VNC server, but I would think there's also far less chance of bricking and no app modifications required other than getting VNC running on the iLiad.
