Not sure abou the waterfall code. OTOH, the reason we haven't been
promoting this mode is that it does not currently perform proper
rounding. Thus the strong DC artifact.

Still there. It's called avg_alpha:
class fft_sink_base(object):
def __init__(self, input_is_real=False, baseband_freq=0, y_per_div=10,
ref_level=50,
sample_rate=1, fft_size=512, fft_rate=15,
average=False, avg_alpha=None, title='', peak_hold=False):
