Effects are given the interval between two consecutive frames. The main
flaw of this approach is that if the Compositor transitions from the idle
state to "active" state, i.e. when there is something to repaint,
effects may see a very large interval between the last painted frame and
the current. In order to address this issue, the Scene invalidates the
timer that is used to measure time between consecutive frames before the
Compositor is about to become idle.

While this works perfectly fine with Xinerama-style rendering, with per
screen rendering, determining whether the compositor is about to idle is
rather a tedious task mostly because a single output can't be used for
the test.

Furthermore, since the Compositor schedules pointless repaints just to
ensure that it's idle, it might take several attempts to figure out
whether the scene timer must be invalidated if you use (true) per screen
rendering.

Ideally, all effects should use a timeline helper that is...
