OK, now this is embarrassing. This time I got it right, I swear. Sorry
for cluttering everyone's mailboxes!

* vim or $otherprogram displays reverse video instead of italics, even though
  tmux displays italics just fine in the status line. What's wrong?

Screen's terminfo description lacks italics mode and has standout mode in its
place. To make applications aware that tmux supports italics, you'll need to
create its own terminfo file:

        $ mkdir $HOME/.terminfo/
        $ screen_terminfo="screen"
        $ infocmp "$screen_terminfo" | sed \
                -e 's/^screen[^|]*\|[^,]*,/screen-it|screen with italics 
support,/' \
                -e 's/smso=[^,]*,/smso=\\E[7m,/' \
                -e 's/rmso=[^,]*,/rmso=\\E[27m,/' \
                -e '$s/$/ sitm=\\E[3m, ritm=\\E[23m,/' > /tmp/screen.terminfo
        $ tic /tmp/screen.terminfo

Now add to ~/.screen.conf:
        
        set -g default-terminal "screen-it"

If your terminal supports 256 colors, use

        $ screen_terminfo="screen-256color"

instead of "screen". See the FAQ entry about 256 colors support for more info.
Also note that tmux will still display reverse video on terminals that do not
support italics.
