Fair enough, thanks for the elaborate reply. do you edit text in the terminal? My main reason for wanting this feature is to be able to scroll up/down in vim; having the text jump a line at a time makes it slightly harder to read, which ads up over time. I think I agree with you that smooth output from command line output isn't necessary, and a fringe benefit at best.
