Delete key must be able to send raw [DEL]
Submitted by John Hardin
Description
It must be possible to configure gnome-terminal to send a raw [DEL] character on hitting the Delete key.
Legacy applications may require a hard [DEL] character instead of the escape sequence that the Delete key currently sends; swapping the Backspace key from ^H to [DEL] to achieve this takes away the ability to backspace while editing and breaks the (legacy OS and application) documentation that says "hit the [DELETE] key to ...".
Greater flexibility in programing keystrokes does belong on the wishlist. This particular instance is a major bug for us and needs sooner resolution.
