It is possible to display an out of line message at the bottom of the screen, 
in a defined area; the operator can request that on some commands.  Don't do it 
without  good reason.

I "get" the basic "roll" of the console screen.

But haven't I seen WTO messages that "hang" at the bottom of the screen like a 
WTOR that has not been replied to? Am I confused?

Hi Charles,
If the console is in Roll Mode, any message will disappear when n+1
messages appear after any given message (where n is the "height" of your
console).
