Ah, apparently I can only reproduce it in iterm2 if I have an RPROMPT
that does a lineup and linedown to get the RPROMPT on the first
line...

PROMPT=$'one\ntwo'
local _lineup=$'\e[1A'
local _linedown=$'\e[1B'
RPROMPT='%{${_lineup}%}%*%{${_linedown}%}'

I've also noticed that emacs seems to be doing unnecessary resizing
when switching between perspectives using perspective.el. I haven't
yet looked into what is causing that, but I suspect adding a check
similar to what iterm2 has, where we actually see what the process tty
size is and only set it if it has changed may help that.
