I'll have to play with this one. The Chromium term browsers I have used in the past have been surprisingly heavy on ram and CPU cycles. This one looks fantastic from the video, but odds are it is also quite heavy. In my experience the best rendering truly light weight term browser is Links2. NetSurf has a pretty nice framebuffer version. Neither will have the same functionality as a Chromium based term browser, but I can't see using a term browser that's slower than Chromium proper.
