I also share some concerns about setting $HOME here (though less than in
test_pause), but forwarding $USER_TERM down would be so nice. I have a
muscle memory of 'tui enable' for anything besides absolutely trivial
debugging, and it's always so frustrating to see:

    (gdb) tui enable
    Cannot enable the TUI: terminal doesn't support cursor addressing [TERM=dumb]

So I would welcome even just that part of this change.

Thanks,
Taylor
