> vte_terminal_{get,set}_bold_is_bright: Whether escape sequences such as \e[1;35m switch to bright colors in addition to bold (legacy behavior) or switch to bold and leave the color intact (new behavior, required for solarized, base16 and similar modern color schemes). (And while at it, we've removed "Allow bold text" from gnome-terminal's UI, and will probably start deprecating its API in about a year. I see no sane reason for this option to exist.)

What does it mean?
Does it mean that in the future there will be no way to disable bold text while keeping bright text?

Thank you for clarifying this up.
