The dim attribute doesn't appear to have any effect with my terminal
emulator.

I did recently apply 47510 (0721060) which makes two bits available in
zattr which would be enough for one attribute, i.e. italics. Would now
be fairly easy to add if someone wants to give it a go - just copy and
paste from bold/reverse/underline. Only danger is if we find that 47510
causes problems and needs to be backed out.
