Terminal.app seems to have worked fine for the last 6 years or so for me :)
What is the single show-stopping bug in Terminal.app that should make me move over to
xTerm?
(iTerm is buggy, I grant you that, but it has better keyboard remapping feature, but it
turns out I don't need them)

Actually forget, xterm is unusable, even basic copy-paste between OS X apps and xterm

It works just fine.
I'll hack out a keyboard mapping later for a slightly more modern terminal.
Good luck with your buggy "modern" terminal.

OK, xterm works pretty well after some investigation..
I've never before attempted to change the setting of an old-skool X program and it
looks like an absolute nightmare. Could any of you gurus produce an .xtermrc with a beige
background and black text and font size set to 14?

Actually xTerm has SOME of the mappings defined by default, does anyone have a decent
.xtermrc file for all of them?

Been playing remapping some "slime slim, full size Apple" kbd but the results
aren't great. Does anybody have a canonical list of VT220 escape codes, preferably in
hex (I think my term's escape sequence is broken)..
Why don't you use xterm? The mappings are already correct. And as a bonus, you
actually get a VT100 emulation with less bugs.
Where are the config files for xterm stored? I want it to look less 1982 and have a font
that doesn't require a microscope to read.
