Add feature for "Talking Head" dialog between characters (accompanied by on-screen character portrait), as is common in Japanese interactive stories. This type of dialog typically shows one, two or more characters showing dialog, then the player must click or press a button to see more dialog, and as different characters speak, the portrait of the character speaking changes. The backdrop tends to remain (mostly) static during dialog, but may change at certain points of the conversation. The backdrop could be animated. Different dialog could have sound effects in the middle. The text flow may make some noise too in this flow, and the text may scroll smoothly rather than appear all at once.
Maybe bake a syntax into the print code that will slide in characters, and flow the text over the location image (or backdrop image), or use dedicated commands.

Think this is downstream of the new renderer.
