Yup, SSH must be using TCP_NODELAY interactively. I can't see how else that would work. And OpenSSH docs say it uses TCP_NODELAY for X forwarding, so that makes sense.

Which means that our "intelligent" update on terminals, which does potentially many writes may produce as many packets. Which may be a problem sometimes :-).

It wouldn't be hard to buffer the writes until the update is done, I think. But is it worth it as an option? Don't know.
