I can only agree. I've checked both iTerm and iTerm2 several times, and the terminal
emulation sucks. Not usable, if you ask me.
The only decent VT emulation I know of (apart from DEC stuff) is actually xterm. And xterm
is available on a MAC as well.
That, along with a full MAC keyboard (the one with the numeric keypad) will do pretty much
all keys you'd normally want straight out of the box.
And xmodmap is your friend, if you want to customize things more, along with the resources
for xterm.
It's weird, I just haven't had these problems with either Terminal.app or
iTerm/iTerm2 - but I guess if they get irritating enough I'll swap to xterm.
