In my own investigation, Terminal.app's VT52 mode does not cause the
keyboard special keys to send VT52 escape sequences. iTerm2, for its
part, does not support VT52 mode at all, and does not send local-mode
escape sequences (e.g. ESC [A) from the arrow keys.

Either's VT100 emulation should be acceptable, though.

Its UI may be clunky or dated, but as far as emulation capabilities go,
xterm really is the cadillac of VT100 emulators.
