But iterating over a single line is very cheap, isn't it?
The rule is: do not try to optimize until the profiler told you that
you should do so.
Perhaps, I don't know. But note that the main incentive here is not the
optimization, but the cleaning up of the code. Right now we have almost
identical code in two different places. That's why this whole thing
started.
Yes, I prefer this reason ;-)
And I agree that LyX should not do anything between two blinks (except if
there's something in the forked queue).

What's more, I think it would be a good idea to suppress or
slow down blinking somehow when LyX is idle. Would save
battery on laptops, cf. the tickless kernel.
Right now the blinking period is hardcoded to 400 millisecond; I wonder
if there's some desktop settings that we could use instead?
