I believe this is one of those commands that takes a repeat number

Further, if you type 8 C-U ALL control-U (AND control-D) key strikes
henceforth will scroll 8 lines.
HA! That is correct! And that makes it behave like I was experiencing.
AND, that's something I tend to do (infrequently) with other commands.
I understand now what Tony was talking about.
I did NOT expect Ctrl-U/D to act like this. Why is the number
persistent? Normally, the number represents the current action, not
all future actions.
Well, I'd expect [count]Ctrl-U (or -D) would repeat ctrl-u [count]
times; that doesn't happen, of course. So it is an oddity -- but it
also is vi compatible behavior. Thus, its not going to be changed.
C'est la vie!
