This idea is not as good, as I thought first. There might be people,
who type exactly ten times cursor-down without controlling it on the
screen and then start typing their text. If the amount of cursor
keycodes would be limited in the buffer to five for instance, the
following text would be placed in the wrong line.

This looks good. The readability is very good, even under heavy load.
So I think I will keep that.
