      Can anyone think

    It's used in normal-erase-is-backspace-mode (when running on a tty).

Could you write an example based on normal-erase-is-backspace-mode?

    It's also used for flow-ctrl.el, which is not in lisp/obsolete.
    Are you suggesting we move flow-ctrl.el to lisp/obsolete?

That would be appropriate if flow control itself is obsolete.

Is anyone still using terminals that need flow control?
