-- If the device is REAGL-aware, and we're doing a reader refresh (i.e., PARTIAL, but not regional), apply some trickery to match the stock reader's behavior (REAGL updates are always FULL, but there's no black flash)
-- If the device is REAGL-aware, and we're doing a reader refresh (i.e., PARTIAL, but not regional), apply some trickery to match the stock reader's behavior if needed (On *some* devices, REAGL updates are always FULL, but there's no black flash)
-- If we truly asked for a PARTIAL, regional update, it's likely for an UI element, so fall back to the default waveform mode, which is tailored per-device to hopefully be more appropriate than the one we use in the reader
