I think you dismiss Drew's concerns too lightly.
Where is the user level documentation comprehensible by mere mortals to
explain the new display code and its customisation ?
It seems to me that most ordinary users of emacs have little chance of

emacs to their liking.
Please assuage my doubts by pointing out the relevant sections in the
manual.
