Nice, thanks! Although I now understand why either top- or bottom-line
approach is arbitrary. It might only be argued that the latter is more
often useful.

I noticed this in terminal emulators, xfce4-terminal and geany,
although their performance seems inferior to emel's current
implementation.

There's again a minor bug lurking around. Generate some output and
make sure the pane display is rock bottom:
- resizing downwards works as expected; the output display is kept rock-bottom
- resizing upwards shifts output from rock-bottom, by a line or so;
successive resize operations (upwards then downwards, etc., with mouse
release in between) will keep scrolling the output up to a random
line. Do you think this behaviour could eb avoided?
