More accurately, that if /dev/mouse is open, then rio will not refresh 
the window image on resize (except for the border), for the reason that 
/dev/mouse sends resize messages.

I have thought about what the Right Thing should be. Neither mouse nor 
wctl should be related to the act of drawing to the screen. That's 
/dev/draw's responsibility. But rio's design is to not exactly stand 
between the program and /dev/draw, so rio can't know anything.
Maybe this is one reason (among many) why I've never seen a text 
terminal get replaced with a gui program anywhere else...

Thanks,
Amavect
