I'd like to see this too, but only for the rare times that I use a
terminal without cursor addressing or am logging an entire session
to a printer or disk file from a PC terminal emulator.  If you set the
pager and editor to "builtin" and do not return to the index screen
at the end of each message (the same commands are accepted by the
builtin pager) the only extra overhead is the first and last screens.
