Very interesting.  That may be possible with something like the Geneve 9640 that would have a very limited number of users.  However, for the TI-99/4A, it would be great, however the DSR (Device Service Routine) which is in ROM, would have to have be updated.  I'm not sure if that chip is socketed or not.  For the most part, the necessary code for another device is already out there so it would be just memory access a bit differently.
