To get something to master immediately or in the near future is a bit
difficult. Let me explain.

The necessary changes are in scratch/tty-child-frames and could be
resurrected by reverting these commits

  e7359fbbc40 Revert "Don't pause display for pending input"
  e5a2bc740dc Revert "Remove an unused parameter"

I reverted then because Eli complained that a feature branch should
contain only one feature and he wanted a discussion about the removal in
the first place.

The code in the branch that is affected by the removal of r-d-p is
different enough from master that removing r-d-p effectively means
implementing it again. And as a bonus that would lead to merge conflicts
in my Emacs, from where the changes originate, and where they are of
course not reverted. So that's no good.
