Yes, that sounds like a good enough solution.

Just for the sake of completeness, since normal inferior output does not
trigger pagination, and that dprintf output should behave like real output, I
wonder why we can't have the dprintf use the same technique as normal output?

But anyway, that is not a big deal, I just wanted to complete the discussion.
