Questions about bug #31625



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

    I was just rummaging through the critical bug list and ran across bug
#31625, "curses-base: xterm/rxvt display messed up on exit from nvi".  Is it
just me, or does this really need to be critical or grave?  I mean, yes, it
is a bug which affects other software but it is hardly a security hole or
something that would cause a loss of data.  At best it is an annoyance on par
with joe v2.8 munging the screen in rxvt/xterm when it exits (which also
could be an ncurses problem).  

    To the person reporting it, I'm just curious, but what happens when you
issue a "reset" when exiting nvi and that behavior is exhibited?
