I am perfectly willing to believe that Ubuntu's Terminal is interfering with the ESC key. There's evidence that it's not a universal behavior, though -- vi and less running in the same Terminal window respond in a timely way to a single press of ESC. Isn't this proof positive that there's something that apps can do to get sensical behavior w.r.t. the ESC key?
(Probably something involving termios raw mode, now that I think of it. Yuck.)
