I like Abdel's suggestion too.  Also, I think we should generate
complete source only on focus...

AFAICT, it should never be desirable to update the *complete* source
while editing the buffer.  The only reason to generate the complete
source is if the "View Source" panel gets focus--that means I'm about
to scroll.  This would eliminate the need for the "Complete source",
"Automatic update" and "Update" boxes/button.
