All my application widgets flickered when I resized the windows, especially
tree and listviews. This fix prevents the erase->redraw mentality of
Windows, which is a stupid way of doing things in the 1st place. It would be
easy to add an option "-noflicker" to all windows so that you can explicitly
say "I want to use the non-flicker drawing routines". I will do this.
