This is currently way beyond my powers  - I do not have more than 40
minutes of uninterrupted time, and understanding the command_editor
class will probably take me more than that.

Meanwhile, the following changeset:
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/02ae72071221

should at least make  figure window redraw fully when pausing, i.e. in
the following line:
sombrero() ; pause

although this figure will not respond to any events (mouse, resize etc...)
