If you end up deciding against PARTICLE::ICETRAIL, though, you could also create your own tiny particle class containing position, (maybe) color and (maybe) lifetime values, make an array of that class, and draw blue pixels (or small rectangles or something) directly to a non-layer jjCANVAS based on the array's contents' positions. But ICETRAIL is simpler if you don't want to figure out classes.

Your piece of code combined with ICETRAIL's color & delta values gave the exact result I was looking for. Many thanks! jjRandom makes it look fine, naturally there are more particles on the screen while standing still and less while the screen is scrolling. There's no need looking into classes or changing the frequency at all.
I will comment your name atop the script file.
