Adding support for 256 colors in Konsole should be quite easy.
It should not be more than one hour of work to do this Konsole.

I implemented the 256 colors support in gnome-terminal and it took me about 30 \
minutes after looking at the code for the first time. 

(I do not use either gnome-terminal nor Konsole, but I have an interest in making 256 \
color terminals available)

If anybody wants to work on this, here are some steps you could follow: 
(obviously you could do things differently, this is just a suggestion)

First change TEWidget.cpp:base_color_table and the code that uses it so that 
colors 0 ... 16 are at indexes 0 .. 16 (this probably is the most time consuming part \
or the implementation).

Then extend base_color_table to contain 256 colors. The code for computing the RGB \
components for the colors is given in comment #4. 

Then implement the code that recognizes the ESC;38;5; and ESC;48;5 sequences and \
changes the fg/bg to the corresponding colors (probably 5-10 lines of code)

Good luck!
