But you were saying that a frame can move from a high-DPI terminal to
a low-DPI one, which seems to mean we cannot compute that just once.
And besides, there are fringe bitmaps that we display regardless of
any overlays and text properties (e.g., truncation and continuation
indicators), which are displayed directly from C.
