Emacs never writes to the bottom-right corner of a terminal, because the
terminal might open a new line at bottom of screen.  But terminals
having any of 'ich', 'ich1' and 'smir' capabilities can write to the
bottom-right corner of the terminal.  Almost all terminals have at least
one of the aforementioned capabilities.  Why doesn't Emacs make use of
that?
