           Summary: please support xterm mouse "Button Motion Events" with
                    "\033[?1002h" control sequence
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: jason.vas.dias at gmail.com


Version:            (using KDE 3.5.9)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

You already support enabling sending mouse motion events to terminal
/ curses applications WHEN a mouse button is pressed or released by
the application sending the "\033[?1000h" (enable) / "\033[?1000l" (disable) 
termcap escape sequences .
Why not also support the "\033[?1002h" "Button Motion Event" sequence,
to enable reporting mouse cell movement events WHILE a mouse button is
held down ? It opens up the ability for curses applications to implement
mouse drag. And why not consider supporting "\033[?1003h" button motion
highlight mode ?
Modern gnome-terminal and of course xterm support both.
If you haven't a clue what I'm talking about, please see :
http://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs.pdf.gz .
If this is already in 4.[12], sorry! But I couldn't find
any reference to 100[0-3]h in any bug request.
If no-one wants to do this, and it is not done,
I'll try to find time to develop a patch to implement.
Thanks for the great work, 
Jason.
