bug#57434: 28.1.91; Terminal Emacs Mac OS flickering.

[Dmitrii Kuragin]

Sorry for the late reply.

But could you please elaborate a bit more on what I can do now?

Do we want to add a hook like `begin_frame_update` or we need to add a `sync_update_begin_escape_code` or we just say, sync_update_protocol (we have 2 of those now).

Alternatively, we can allow users to specify it as a terminal capability and let them override it. Like, `(setq xterm-extra-capabilities (quote (modifyOtherKeys setSelection)))`

Which way would we like to proceed?

I think the conclusion in the message you quoted was that we will need
a function, not just a variable.  That's because we need to allow two
different protocols for this, and we should allow switching between
the protocols.
