I think this comment reads a little awkwardly. Maybe "Replace the result
object of the current thread by RESULT and redraw it"?

I think this doesn't always do quite the right thing with multiline
results: the one that I can reproduce reliably is if you are on the
second line of the first result, and the first line of this result is
the first visible line in the window, and update it (eg by marking
unread) then the window scrolls so that the second line of the first
result is the first line visible in the window (ie the window scrolls up
one line)

Perhaps a documentation line? along the lines of Insert RESULT in buffer
at POS or the end of buffer.
