Some programs don't check the value of km and use smm and rmm
capabilites, and they cause the terminal change to meta enabled
mode even in cases where is not desirable.

Allmost all people is using the terminal waiting that meta sends
escape, so rmm and smm are not needed. If someone needs meta
sets 8 bit he can use the correct terminfo definition in TERM.

+ St support meta in 8bit mode, but the default terminfo entry doesn't
+ use this capability. If you want it, you have to use st-meta value
