Glenn Linderman added the comment:

Re: curses... maybe that becomes a DOCS issue, to mention the available 
packages. But it would be easier, no doubt to port curses to a known existing 
escape sequence control set, than to use a bunch arcane, 
foreign-to-the-Unix-porter-that-wants-curses obscure and seldom discussed 
Windows APIs.

IIRC, ANSI is somewhat incompatible with sending random binary gibberish to the 
screen, as people accidentally do with TYPE sometimes :) But the random binary 
gibberish may contain ANSI control sequences... That's why I'm negative on 
making it a default.
