This replaces high numbered function keys on xterm style
emulators with modifiers. So pressing SHIFT-ALT-F1 is
reported as exactly that, for example. This also extends
that to the insert, delete, home, end, etc.
There is a chance that this will break some emulators --
of particular concern are older VTE based emulators and
rxvt (and derivatives). However, we think that most VTE
derivatives are now much more closely aligned to xterm.
The Wyse50 alternate character set was changed (likely
due to a bug fix in ncurses).
