Public bug reported: I am often using Scrollback in GNOME-Terminal. The current version forgets to refresh the screen timely afterwards. For one thing, it means that one is wildly pressing Shift-PageUp Shift-PageDown too often and it is hard to find things.
For another, when trying to highlight material with the mouse, the refresh happens after the highlighting completes so the highlighted material is on a different page than the material you _imagined_ to be highlighting. Very annoying. Basically, you have to remember to do an extra click or keypress or whatever in order to trigger the screen refresh before you can do anything serious.
