Acceptable. > How about David K's suggestion (slightly modified) > preempt-font-lock-when-scrolling? While it might indeed influence font-lock's detailed working under the hood, this is mostly hidden from the user, so mentioning font-lock is misleading, just like mentioning "face". Of course, it also doesn't "preempt" anything AFAICT, so that part would also be incorrect. Stefan
