Yes.

I am losing the will to care about this issue, but before you push
your patch, would you mind re-reading the discussion we had about this
last year? The outcome was that the latest Mac OS X Terminal shipped
with xterm-256color as the default terminal setting, and that
everything worked fine there.

Again, can we establish whether the problem is in the terminfo
database, in which case that should be fixed rather than Zile, or in
Zile?

Also, why does the test hang? Since quoted-insert calls
getkey_unfiltered, why doesn't the code just get returned as for any
other code?

The key email from you was sent on 15/08/2011.

At the very least, I'd like to end up with documentation that reduces
our chances of going round this loop again.
