When using iTerm2, the arrow keys are generating escape O sequences which are being printed out to screen instead of scrolling back in history of moving between characters. Is there any intention of supporting the escape O sequences in addition to the escape [ sequences?

For reference, the iTerm FAQ talks about the escape sequences under "Why my arrow/HOME/END keys are not working?"

That's strange. I'm using iTerm2 too, and my arrow keys is working as expected (not the ESC O sequences), also <fn-Left>/<fn-Right> are work.
But I'm using macbook which the HOME/END keys is missing. Would you mind to provide sequences for those keys? BTW, What's your $TERM?

Home is OH and End is OF. $TERM is xterm-256.

I did a little more thorough testing as well since I was using the iterm2 nightly. In both Terminal and iTerm 2 (not the beta or nightly) I'm experiencing the same behavior. I've also tried on two different Macs with the same result. From what I found online, some people who've had older version of iTerm have preferences carried over that override the default behavior of iTerm2's arrow keys as well.
