xterm has the same behavior as what I did here. It will make the colors 0..7
bright by using colors 8..15. this still matches the ECMA standard (which
knows only about the 8 first colors).
Using bright with other colors does not happen in any application I know. Are
there some examples so we can compare the results in xterm and Terminal ?

Well, it uses bit 3 of the 8-bit color number as a 'bright' attribute, bits 0
to 2 as the selected color (from 0 to 7), and also uses bits 3-7 when using
xterm extended colors. The reused bit can be moved elsewhere, and the color
mixing done at rendering time. The result will be the same.
