Yes, I hope so!
Once it has gotten a fair bit of real-world feedback and testing 
(which is the one of the reasons why I opened this thread) we can 
enable it by default if a TTY is detected.

TTY detection is probably necessary as there are still a lot of 
programs (especially editor plugins) which parse the DMD output.
