I suppose there's a possibility that something in 5.4 is seriously wrong with
cursor routing, although I don't think there is. I just tested cursor routing
with the latest code. It's fast. On Linux, when I request the cursor to be
routed 20 characters to the right (I think that's what you aid), what I observe
on the braille display is an instant jump. No slow motion, no constant rewrites
of the display, etc. If your driver is strictly doing no more than what a
driver should be doing then you should be observing the very same good
performance.
