New iot menu or even default shell as user menu evtl. in python
The iot menu is quite popular, so we should think if we could do everything command line based with it (maybe offer simple shell escape right on front page).
I also don't like that it is written in java script. There exists a prototype in python using prompt_toolkit in bin - after adding prompt_toolkit with pip install prompt_toolkit
(inside of the it environment), you can test it with:
cd "$HOME/iot/bin"
python user_menu-python.py
However it was once very slow on the pi, should be tested on pi and pi zero.
Maybe also consider switch to textual (https://github.com/Textualize/textual) or something golang (https://github.com/rivo/tview) based?
This should probably lead to a new general TUI (text UI) affecting all commands.
