I was thinking about this, and it’s not actually a new feature, it’s
an optimization of a feature that already exists (progressive scroll).
The fact the optimization is only available on macOS is irrelevant.

So in that spirit I’ve attached another patch.

Can Eli or John let me know if I’m thinking about this right? And if
this patch *is* ok, is it too late for Emacs 26?
