If it really causes a full screen repaint when just moving the mouse

I agree with Martin, I am worried with the possible implications for Mac. I
would like to see this issue cleared before the patch being applied.
Note that I am not rejecting the patch, I am concerned with not introducing
regressions in all the supported platforms, this includes those where we have
regular reports: linux; win; mac; solaris, etc.
Hmmm, according to the code (AFAICS) it should be doing a
single-paragraph update only. But Abdel reports a whole-screen update.
What is really happening?
The singlePar optimisation depends on the keyboard cursor position. I
think it won't be easy to get it right without ugly hacks. The only true
way to solve this is to split the drawing as explained in another email.
I don't think this will happen in 1.5 so, as I am sure there would be a
problem with Mac, I'd say that you should either make this new feature
configurable or disabled on Mac.
