--- Comment #3 from Tomas Pospisek <tpo_deb at sourcepole.ch> ---
I would also love to be able to disable *completely* mouse event forwarding
from konsole into the terminal. If anyone knows if there's a work around (like
using stty or something to disable mouse support) then I'd be very glad to
hear.

Terminal apps being able to handle mouse events are driving me crazy. The
problem is, that every terminal app feels like inventing its own mouse
handling. Some terminal applications actually *do* interpret CTRL-click *or*
Shift-click so what happens if you want to mark text in the terminal in order
to copy it (be it with shift, ctrl or whatever) is a roll of dice. It's driving
me nuts.

It'd be so much nicer if terminal apps would just stop messing with mouse input
altogether or konsole would not forward mouse input *at all* to the terminal.

If somebody knew where mouse events get forwarded into the terminal (if the
mechanism works at all like this), then I'd happily just comment that code out
in konsole and recompile from source...
