Good call, sir! Indeed, when I did the fresh install of Stretch,
the default terminal run from the panel (exo-open --launch TerminalEmulator)
had changed to gnome-terminal. A bit of web searching came up with the
exo-preferred-application command, which let me re-configure the default
terminal emulator to Xfce Terminal. All is well again. Thanks!

As far as I can tell, the guiding principle of the GNOME project
these days is "I like it, so that's what you should use."
Only I don't like it.
I tried Ubuntu for a while, and was fairly impressed. And then Unity
happened...
Luckily, we live in a world full of choices, and the decision to
use a particular desktop environment (or not) is reasonably easy
to change.
Try to explain that to a Windows vict^H^H^H^Huser. His brain would explode.
