So let me understand this, in order to get a functional terminal I have to 
use a package that is not even shipped with the standard install? No 
standard user is ever going to do this, they are just going to get hacked 
off with it being broken. A better reason for using rxvt might be because 
its faster.

Maybe everyone in the know uses rxvt and that's why the standard terminal 
is not so great?
