And I'd leave the "normal" terminal code out of this.

Including frame-based redisplay in update_frame?

Yes, I'd leave that as-is.  The frame-based updates used to be quite
important for relatively dumb and slow terminals because it increases the possibility of reusing parts of the display that are alreay displayed on the terminal.

I guess terminal emulators allowing images and such are less likely to benefit from that.

Or even, do we still have terminals connected with, don't know, say 1200 baud or some such? If not, or not many, maybe such a new backend that is not frame-based could replace the frame-based one eventually?
