xterm-mouse-mode is missing some very useful functionality (at least
IMO):
- it is not possible to double-click to select a word/line/etc.
- it is not possible to select text with the mouse in emacs and then
use mouse-2 to paste in another xterm, or emacs. How would you copy
text from an emacs running in an ssh session in an xterm?
A lot of users use these features, so IMO it is not a good idea to
turn on xterm-mouse-mode by default at this point.
I don't follow the logic. While the failure to implement some mouse
features is clearly a drawback, why would it be better to implement
none than to implement some? I don't see it.
