Yes, if you do it, do it now. I believe drawing can be very efficient if 
designed
with parsimony from the ground up.

Surely you mean Row::changed()? Would make sense. You would need to detect

2) has the position on-screen (x,y) changed?
3) has the appearance (text, font, other visible attributes like CT) changed?
