No, only for the input part (if at all).  The ``buggy pty'' behaviour
that for example bites the Emergency Holographic Shell is certainly
not your fault.

I think the ScrollLock feature used to have problems all the time, in
particular if output data arrived while one was scrolling back.

You know, i've been also once yelling at you for making the keyboard
driver in the 2.2 branch a ``patch of the day'' work, but it seems
it's now more stable than it used to be before.  Unless you are really
sure that ripping it out again will cure at least one or two very
annoying problems, it's probably not worth doing.
