This is the personal opinion of the author of the article. Can
you send me a link to the standard where it is said?. The problem
with terminals is they stop their evolution at the beginning
of the 90, so there is no standard way of doing utf8 stuff.

The utf-8 sequence that the page talks about is only a common
sequence that some terminals accepts, but it is not standard at
all, and there is no concept of utf-8 or ISO 2022 modes. St
implements a vt200 compatible terminal with only ASCII support
(without the upper part of the code table), and it has an
extension that is utf8. You don't have to send any sequence
to activate any 'mode'.
