It depends on what you mean by "redisplay engine" in this context.
The high-level, platform-independent part of the display engine has
its own ideas regarding which parts need to be redrawn, and I won't
recommend modifying that. But this part of the engine does not draw
anything. It just produces an interim _representation_ of the desired
screen contents, stored as a "glyph matrix" structure. It is then the
job of the terminal-specific back-end to actually draw the screen
based on the desired matrix. What the back-end does is entirely up to
it, provided that it keeps a very simple contract: that after it's
done, the contents of the screen is 100% according to the desired
matrix.
Btw, I don't think I understand what Mitsuharu says in this Item #2.
Surely, we cannot "restrict the actual drawings to those in response
to exposure events"? A completely exposed window does need to be
redrawn if the buffer text changes, right? What am I missing?
