I have another suggestion: remove the support for COLORTERM entirely,
or at least announce that it is not supported per-terminal.  It's high
time terminals that support true color have their terminfo entries
fixed and up-to-date.  We supported COLORTERM during the transition
period, as a temporary kludge, to help people who had those terminals,
but whose terminfo DB did not yet catch up, but we should slowly move
towards removing that support from Emacs.
