I'd love to see the gorgeous original VGA fonts in this including the characters for line/window drawing.

The arduino library will have a font editor. But this might take a week or two. There is some higher priority work to do yet. You can check the progress. It also updated in the Arduino Library manage from time to time :)

Are you planning a low RAM usage plain text VGA mode?

yes. there is the VGA3BitI implementation that uses only 4 bit per pixel.. it takes some cpu time to render in the background but works with double buffer in the highest resolution

check the HighRes example
