The picture seems to be there's no way to modify the default behavior short of
recompiling, which is unfortunate.

To need to recompile the app to make changes to the default would seem a short
coming of the app, from an administrative point of view.

As a systems administrator, it is common for us to have to modify the linux
machines on our network to make the Backspace really generate backspace, eg.
when communicating to non-linux machines or dumb devices (modems, firewalls) via
telnet/ssh/cu from within terminal applications such as konsole.

I know we have Linus and DEC legacies to thank for that one, but often it's the
sysadmins that are left to unravel these idiosyncrasies, and we hope/pray for
config files to implement workarounds to adjust the defaults.

I guess this is turning into a wish list item. :/
