You're complaining about the quality of the changes I make?
You want to take over? You want to be maintainer of nano?

Very minor breakage: the <Bsp> key not scrolling backward any more,
something probably no one uses. I added it a while ago just for
some "compatibility" with the 'info' reader.

It breaks nothing; it just fails to add support for them. Oversights.
Those escape sequences are not on my radar.

I haven't done any of the complex stuff ever. I don't have the stamina
for that.

Yes, I don't absolutely need those things added or fixed, because
I have learned to work around them. But I haven't gotten to them,
because they demand a too large investment of time and focus.
