Well, actually we'd like to add interpolation to the GIMP canvas as

for GIMP-2.2?
In OSX many applications tend to provide a quick redraw for pannings
but start a timer which will refine the display once it was static
for a while.
Hee hee... it's interesting how things can come full-circle.
GIMP 0.5[34] did something very similar to provide a quick-render
for interactive operations, re-rendering the results more nicely
on the idle thread (undithered vs. dithered rather than
aliased vs. interpolated, but for the same reasons).
