It's not so much _what_ it is as where it is.  It reminds me of the
character legends above/below dials in a dial box.

I've thought about something like that with a more modern twist - I
have a few 40x2 LCDs - I got them from BG Micro, but I think they were
originally from a satellite TV box - one could mount some shaft
encoders above and below the LCD and have 8-10 chars per dial, or one
could mount it above the function keys and do something similar to
what this terminal is doing.
