Generally yeah. I think the idea is that it's presumptuous to eat the ^[[O
and ^[[I in cases where it's enabled in your terminal. I don't really know
of a situation where you wouldn't want to, but this would be changing
behavior for people. They may rely on the the focus tracking of their
terminal (and not of tmux because it didn't have it).
The option just gives them the chance to make it behave the way it always
has, not swallowing them.
We have 3 options as I see it... personally, I wouldn't ever want to not
have the filtering enabled so I don't have a strong opinion about it
1) Leave it as it is, the filter is an option and it's disabled by default.
2) Enable the filter by default. This is probably what most people would
expect if they were using both tmux and terminal focus tracking.
3) Rip the option out. This would not be "backwards compatible" for people
that for whatever reason relied on getting those escape codes in any pane.
