Summary:                    sed behaves badly interactively
Description: 
sed always has one-line latency due to the need to match last line ($
address). this is very annoying for interactive use of live filtering of
logs, etc. the gnu version only enables the latency if the $ address is
actually used (which is rare).

Actually n, N, and q are impacted by the next_line logic too.  Not a
trivial bug to fix, and this close to 1.2.0 I'm just going to punt it to
1.2.1...
