And some of us are using X-terminals that in general work extremely well
and will probably never die, and it's nice that gnome/gtk+ in general
support them.  

I would be kinda frustrated if I had to replace my company
full of ultra-reliable, low power consumption X-Terminals with PC's (and
yes, most of these were manufactured just prior to the time X11R6 was 
released).
