yes - in discussing this with Egmont a few months ago, I pointed out
some
technical deficiencies with the 1015 code, and also noted a problem
with urvt's
implementation of 1005 (if the locale encoding isn't UTF-8, it won't
report positions
past 50x95).

I followed up by implementing a 1006 which lacks the defects that I
noted in urxvt's design.
Those points are summarized in the change-log for #277, as well as in
ctlseqs.

(Actually I made these changes at the beginning of December, but other
work
got in the way of a more rapid update- hence the late release for
vttest to
demonstrate the feature).
