Oh, cool. Thank you for all the testing. I tested a few terminals,
mostly a subset of those you listed, and all supported both 'ls' using
BEL and ST as the terminator.

The exception was Konsole which didn't seem to show links for me, but I
sort-of assumed it was user error, i.e., me missing a configuration
somewhere.

I think it is fine. The set of people using old terminals and latest
coreutils is probably very small.
