Problem is that people don't have low bandwidth in mind when designing. (ie 
good example here is how Konsole works.. when the screen scrolls, the 
entire text is repainted, instead of just doing a scroll + repaint of the 
new line -- this might make the implementation more abstract, but it's a 
killer on low bandwidth connections)

But this problem with the menu's just seems wrong. I can't think of any 
reason why repainting the entire menu is necessary.
