Ideally, we'll only match the low level escape codes, and compound
escapes like rs2 will be handled automatically by taking care of their

has actually selected a terminal.  The curses.setupterm() logic also
assumes that the selected terminal doesn't change after the initial

eventually breaks down, you'll have to cache the last-setup terminal

`.term` doesn't match the cached value.
