IMHO, if rxvt has capabilities not in xterm, it should not set TERM
to xterm in the first place. If you set TERM to xterm you should
not expect programs to jump through hops trying to figure out if it
really is an xterm or rather something else. I would just say that
anybody expecting to get rxvt.el loaded
when TERM is set to xterm has a misconfigured system and leave it
at that. But that is just IMHO.
And BTW, the argument that there is no rxvt termcap/terminfo
description could be solved by rxvt itself. Rxvt could easily write
such a description to a file and set the TERMCAP and TERMINO
environment variables accordingly. Or the user can do it if rxvt won't.
