Swing has made major improvements in scrolling for Kestrel.
However, the improved scrolling algorithms fail under some conditions.
This causes the viewport to be forced back to a very conservative slow
mechanism.

The problems lie in the AWT Graphics.copyArea()
method, and how it produces update events asynchronously. If a
new version of this method were provided then the Swing viewport
could be modified to be even more efficient.
