Description

I am among the few users who dislike the new behavior introduced in the ticket #3088 (https://midnight-commander.org/ticket/3088), which is enabled by default with no option to disable it.

I would like to request an option for Midnight Commander to ignore the OSC 7 sequence, ensuring that all my tabs open to $HOME. Please consider adding this configuration option.

P.S. egmont did all the work to make the patch possible; I merely voiced my concerns here. :P

I explained why I don't want an option in #3088.

Also, it seems wrong to do it in mc. If you don't like mc reporting OSC 7, then you won't like other software like vim doing it. So the right place to configure this would be the terminal emulator.

Finally, Egmont suggested a workaround (cd to $HOME in the profile) if your terminal doesn't have this option and you don't want to implement it. Why wouldn't you want to implement this solution?
