I was thinking of targeting xterm-16color too, not just
xterm-256color, just to cover bases a bit better.
I also don't mind manually spelling out the regex:
/xterm|xterm-\d+color|xterm-new|xterm-direct|nsterm|nsterm-\d+color|nsterm-direct/
for simplicity's sake; sure it's verbose, but it's also dead-easy for
people to understand and extend in the future if necessary.
