Just some historic input here. I seem to remember Miguel saying that
gnome-terminal was supposed to be as close to xterm in behaviour as possible
when he started the project way back when. The ChangeLog in the current
gnome-terminal says this:

002-02-15  Havoc Pennington  <hp@pobox.com>

        * src/terminal.c (main): make option parsing accept exactly the
        same --command/-e/--execute/-x options as gnome-terminal and
        handle them the same way.

So I don't know why we're doing stuff differently...
