Was a nice diversion and the tmux source code is quite a pleasure

One nice effect of this design is that the decisions are all made
at init time rather than at each use. We don't have to decide each
time which codes to send, we just send whatever has been configured.
I think internally the design is a good one, and it leverages the
existing infrastructure within the code. Perhaps exposing that
information to the users is a mistake and a different configuration
option should be implemented.

Note that the sequences are only sent when the cursor colour is changed.
You can set the sequences to something visible (like XXX) and see that
they're hardly ever sent.

No worries, enjoy your trip. If you decide you want the problem solved
another way let me know and i'll give it a go if i have the cycles to
spare.
