   Unless you're using Ctrl-A codes or some other form of abstraction, yes, it's   
   problematic for non-ANSI users.

   PETSCII terminals are pretty widely used and I think Nelgin and Deuce are   
   working on some BBC Micro terminal support. These are 2 examples of non-ANSI   
   terminals that user actually use. There's more: ATASCII, VT52, ... but   
   Synchronet does not (yet) support them.
