Same problem here - once the terminal displays highlighted text,
highlighting doesn't get switched off. Reproducable with less and more
among other programs. Even a reset(1) doesn't turn the highlighting
off. I reckon it's a bug deep down in zvt.

I wish I understood its code so I could debug it...
