Summary 0000933: I believe all c_cc subscripts shall be unique, and there should be no exception.
Description I believe all c_cc subscripts shall be unique, and there should be no exception.

For example, I put the terminal into non-canon state with MIN=1 and TIME=0 so that I can receive all keyboard input immediately.

If I were to temporarially restore the 'sane' state so that I can read a string let's say a filepath, EVEN THOUGH I'd not type in NUL ('\0') or SOH ('\1'), It's still absured just to let the terminal think them as EOF and EOL.

And EOF-EOL and MIN-TIME are completely different concepts (world of nut),
EOF-EOL are characters that should be recognized by the terminal,
MIN-TIME are parameters that controls the terminal (more specifially, read()).

I could be wrong, and there may already be implementation doing so. But I don't think overlapping their memory location is in any way a good idea.
Desired Action Change:

The subscript values are unique, except that the VMIN and VTIME subscripts may have the same values as the VEOF and VEOL subscripts, respectively.

To:

All subscripts have unique values.
Tags No tags attached.

This is common existing practice on conforming systems which would be rendered non-conforming by the proposed change.
