Comment:
My view:
- urxvt is not a default of user friendly distros anyway, is it?
- open source should be getting out of the way, not into the way. Cause not getting your job done has a cost, too.
- When it matters (eg irssi) they have their own checks
- I am aware of copying from the net could be dangerous (so is loosing time). So maybe it should be the responsibility of providing/receiving sides to step into the way.
Pasting 3 lines into a shell is a common pattern.

Have you ever seen a PC "Do you want to switch on the speakers could be loud?" ;-)

But maybe a link to this issues would be enough to have people find the solution fast and control their own ~/.X11defaults file.

But the most annoying thing is that if you copy paste 3 lines from an urxvt terminal you get one line instead then ! So the behavior might even change in an unexpected way. I have been using version 9.31.
