The shifting of links would be some change I've made in lynx - not
necessarily ncursesw.  That's essentially the same issue that
Atsuhito KOHDA reports.  If I can reproduce it, then I can fix it.

For sluggish input, I'm not sure.  The logic for splitting lines (for
layout of a page) is going to be slower with the way I've implemented it.
But echoing input doesn't use much of the logic that's related to this.
(It's hard to tell - the performance issues I have with this box are
in different areas than this).
