Or using fontification-functions: when process output comes along, check
the visibility of the buffer: if it's not currently visible, remove the
`fontified' property on the inserted text, such that when the buffer
gets displayed in the future, fontification-functions will get called,
so you know that the text has now been displayed. You can even then
highlight the text especially to grab the user's attention.
