Part of the issue with this taking a while is that there's no one on
the committer side of things that deals with curses.

For one thing, I see that the patch has no tests, so you might want to
add unit tests to ensure that your changes don't break anything else.
I left a comment saying that on the issue, so I'll get any updates you
make and can look at them.

Rick Johnson's response is, as always, pure trolling. I'd suggest you
ignore him.
