Surely in the dire eventuality that you somehow manage to destroy your terminal emulator, you can Ctrl+Alt+F2? (Actually I think I've heard of gsettings corruption borking gnome-terminal in 12.3 or maybe 12.2.) But this was more of an idle complaint, though that didn't come out properly in my original email. Xterm is part of the X11 pattern, not the GNOME pattern.
