I am curious if anyone sees a use for the redisplay command in ratpoison.
This command feels like it was copied from screen (where line noise makes
it useful sometimes) and perhaps survives from those early X days when
asking the server to redraw the screen was sometimes useful in the face of
programs writing to /dev/console and messing with the display.

I'm not proposing to remove the function, but I wonder if it needs to stay
in the default key binding map, which seems noisy to me.
