What is clear, is that the line mode allows buffering and utilizes the
protocol features better than character mode. Also, the interim solution
is WON'T ECHO, DO ECHO, if I remember it right, so the echo wouldn't
travel back and forth. Is there anything else which is a reason for such
evilness?

Hold on a second, I might forget some details, but isn't it right that a
character mode _IS_ a binary mode with the command sequences in between?
