Public bug reported:

I am often using Scrollback in GNOME-Terminal.  The current version
forgets to refresh the screen timely afterwards.  For one thing, it
means that one is wildly pressing Shift-PageUp Shift-PageDown too often
and it is hard to find things.

For another, when trying to highlight material with the mouse, the
refresh happens after the highlighting completes so the highlighted
material is on a different page than the material you _imagined_ to be
highlighting.

Very annoying.  Basically, you have to remember to do an extra click or
keypress or whatever in order to trigger the screen refresh before you
can do anything serious.
