calico.clear_output() removes too much?

[Doug Blank]

When one issues a calico.clear_output(), it redraws too much... is there a better way? Do we have a bug?

"You can use clear_output(wait=True) to add the clear_output call to a queue. When data becomes available to replace the existing output, the clear_output will be called immediately before the new data is added. This avoids the flickering by not rendering the cleared output to the screen."

Yep, even had this already implemented. Just add True to clear_output() to prevent seizures
