Innovations like this make me sad that terminfo seems to have died and/or quagmired. It makes detection of these features unscalable and/or impossible, because most of the neoterms are just lying in $TERM, and any value that wouldn't be a lie is missing data in terminfo.

I've also never really fully understood why terminfo seems to be a singular package, and not something like man pages where, e.g., each terminal drops in their respectively entry.
