But the inserted character could be in the portion that is not
displayed at all, in which case it does not "require redisplay". Who
should decide whether redisplay is necessary? If that's Emacs, then
it should know a lot about the display layout. If its the Canvas,
then it should know a lot about what portions of the buffer text are
on the screen.
Besides, this mean a thorough redesign of Emacs objects. Currently,
they are totally unaware of the display engine, and don't request any
redisplays. They just modify themselves and that's it.

Again, how to know that? Note that some mouse movements perform
complex operations on Emacs objects, like popping up windows and
frames.
