What speaks against using the line above in your desktop startup file?
Especially as you require to have behavior A for 'startup xterms' and
behavior B for 'temporary xterms' -- how is the shell expected to
distinguish the one from the other¹?

¹ Of course you could create a symlink 'startup-xterm' linking to xterm,
and then differentiate in .zshrc between xterm and startup-xterm. But
when allowing such overhead, you could equally well create a wrapper
script or something alike.
