Re: [Mutt] #2952: <BackSpace> should use terminal settings

This still seems like a bug to me: mutt should be doing something more useful than asking terminfo what the default backspace character for the $TERM is. Besides the fact that it can be configured to be non-default, as you say, some of these terminal definitions are a little buggy. There is a more reliable way to do it, so mutt should use that (imho).

But you don't really know if backspace is the same as erase...
