Actually, "ESC [" is also available as "CSI" (a C1 control
character). This is why UTF-8 terminals are more robust - if
you want it to receive CSI (U+009B), you must encode it...

Yep, that's CSI.

But isn't there a menu point "pass C1 control characters as is"
in the configuration, which you can set to off?
