Ctrl+Shift+"=" (Ctrl+"+") creates blank lines #108

Everytime I try to make the font bigger using Ctrlr+Shift+"=" it pushes the text down as if blank lines were created.

Yepp, that's because libtsm doesn't support any "fill"-state-tracker. Imagine the screen is full of text, the lower-most line is the reference-line which has to stay on screen, so upper lines will get moved out. This can be avoided if the lower lines are empty. But otherwise, there is nothing we can do. Nevertheless, it's a libtsm thing, not kmscon.
