The redisplay rewrite is not alive, because Joel's company quit

However, his ideas are still good ones (or so it would seem to me),
and rewriting the redisplay should be an interesting project.
My $0.02 - I don't think we should ever do this unless we have someone
working on it full time. Chuck spent a long time getting the current one
right and fast. There's no way we are going to duplicate that effort unless
there is someone in the know doing it the whole time.
And I still don't find redisplay that slow.
