In Gtk Emacs, 

     M-[ C-h

reports nothing.

With emacs -nw, 

    ,----
    | ^L
    | Global Bindings Starting With M-[:
    | key             binding
    | ---             -------
    | 
    | ^L
    | Input decoding map translations Starting With M-[:
    | key             binding
    | ---             -------
    | 
    | M-[ 1           Prefix Command
    `----

So this M, ESC business is something that I would never understand.  I
am at my wits end for other "workable" solutions.  Having an exception
for `M- [' just for GUI Emacs would be unacceptable, I suppose.
