Its a question of giving priority to Emacs features or Xterm features. Within Emacs, the mouse is used more often for Emacs so it seems more natural that Emacs gets priority there.
It is a big incompatibility with usual xterm functionality, and it isn't very compatible with non-xterm Emacs functionality. That's too problematical to be on by default. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
