actually, my first reply was mainly on the issue of $TERM, which
is what most of the thread is about. The part about colors is secondary;
if xterm does something appropriate with the escape sequences, then it's
usable. If it ignores it (as do the other terminals...), then it's not.

Testing with tack, I can see that konsole's keyboard matches the "konsole" terminfo entry,
and does not match "xterm" (use infocmp to see the expected differences).
That makes it unusable (doesn't function as specified).

Reiterating my comment about the goal of "emulating xterm", this is a difference
that is about ten years old.
