I can't feel confident about its sandboxing story yet. And if we can't
build a file navigator, what are we even doing with it.

delete curses primitives to read whole lines
...
They make it seem like you can use them to create simple REPL apps, but
you can't, because standard Teliva shortcuts won't work.
I _could_ make them work by emulating them using getch(), but that feels
like an unnecessary abstraction for now.

stop letting apps change directory
...
I introduced this ability when I packaged up the lfs directory, but it
can enable apps to circumvent sandboxing rules in some situations. If
you can socially engineer someone to allow reading a file called
'passwd' in the current directory, you can now change directory to /etc
and read something sensitive.
Protecting against stuff like this gets subtle. It's easy for people to
create policies that aren't robust to changing directories. Requiring
absolute paths is also pretty unfriendly. So the whole notion of current
directory is perhaps implicit state that is confusing to manage. Fix it
in the context of a single session.

This isn't necessarily for sandboxing, but they don't really work right
now in the presence of ncurses, and it seems better to not include
broken stuff. Maybe we can get them to coexist with ncurses down the
road.

yet.
