Actually, I think the correct order of prefrence is IC, then im/ei,
then ic, because on bitmapped terminals, it's *much* more efficient to
do one blit rather than N to open up the space, and on non-bitmapped
terminals, the cost is about the same either way.  It also seems to me
to be less distracting.

Scrolling regions vs. multiple line insert/delete is almost, but not
quite, the same sort of thing.
