weston-terminal doesn't support xterm mouse tracking protocol[1]. Mouse tracking makes it easy to navigate inside apps that support it, e.g. links browser, vim (via set mouse=a), and emacs (via xterm-mouse-mode). It would be better to add mouse tracking support into weston-terminal for better interactive terminal use. [1] http://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs/ctlseqs.html#h2-Mouse-Tracking
This is a request for an enhancement. weston-terminal has been on kind of maintenance mode without new development. It's the fallback terminal for cases when everything else fails or nothing else is available. I'm not sure how much sense it makes to make it featureful, I hope there would be better alternatives for development.
if mouse reporting is added at some point, I'd recommend only implementing SGR mode 1006. the older/limited modes just aren't worth the effort (such as 1005 and 1015).
