I think the standard recommendation is not rxvt or xterm, but rxvt-unicode/urxvt

I've never understood this. I use urxvt because it's good for Chinese fonts and stuff, but I've never noticed it being any better about the resizing issue. For example, I'll have one term open and open another one with the intent to do something with text in the first one, but after creating the second term, the text in the first one has been trashed. The doing-anything-makes-everything-resize thing is dwm disease that didn't happen with the ion fixed frames way. I miss it so much sometimes I think about going back, despite xmonad being an overwhelmingly better way.
