That would be glorious indeed, but quite difficult to do due to the way
geiser works right now, which consists on delegating as much as it can
to the scheme REPL via a text-based communication channel... and that in
a way generic enough to be applied to other schemes.

I cannot think of an easy way of accomplising what you want without
essentially rewriting the whole thing, but would be delighted to be
proved wrong...

Cheers,
