Anything new here? Apparently upstream intentionally breaks things or simply doesn't care. So could Debian please fix things at least downstream? The patch is trivial, and having tested it with all kinds of applications, it seems to not cause breakage.
Having set the wrong TERM breaks all kinds of things and there is no real way to correct that (setting it in .bashrc or friends would do this for all terminals!). Below is a list of differences between xterm and gnome and for xterm-256color / gnome-256color things are not better. Reporting the wrong terminal doesn't only lead to some features not working, it also means that tests for features fail, e.g. tput blink will exit 0 on gnome terminal, while it should exit 1 (since it doesn't support blinking). Further, I'd suggest that gnome-terminal sets TERM=gnome-256color instead of just gnome. It actually already supports full RGB colours so there's no reason to restrict oneself.
