I think it should be doable too.  I feel like I've seen a mode that
did something similar before, but I can't quite recall.
There are definitely a variety of examples of distorting how text is
displayed, like folding-mode, or even the syntax colorization of
font-lock-mode.  Hexl-mode also does some trick to make each
2-character hex code act like a single character.  The input methods
for asian languages have to do a variety of funky stuff too.

Definitely seems doable.
