 Thanks for your thorough analysis!  I can only imagine you're correct
 in pointing out that gnome-terminal and friends are not honoring the
 rules of VT10x standards, and I'll clone the bugs against the
 implementations you mentionned.  My top interest in the bug is to have
 grep --color display properly (instead of mangling the output in
 standards-compliant terms); do you think a more reasonnable sequence
 could be used by grep instead so that I can recommend a proper
 implementation when reassigning to grep?

   Thanks!
