Do not merge to master.I think it's too late to put something like this in emacs-28. Do I understand correctly that it's not needed in Emacs 29?
Correct, there's already a fix for this in Emacs 29 from (I think) bug#50806. If it's too late to add this for 28, then I think we can close this.
For Emacs 28, the only negative to not merging Miha's patch is that users will have to manually update eterm-color (and install it to their systems) if they want to be sure their terminfo database correctly represents the capabilities in Emacs 28's `term-mode'. That's probably not a big deal, and worst-case scenario, some commands might only use 8 colors instead of 16.
