As for your other req's for a new terminal program:
/Absolute requirements: //////must be able to CTL-click (or something-click) urls to open them in a browser; /
Yes. CTL-click works (and dynamically underlines the link before clicking).
/must have either sane or user-configurable double-click-select characters; /
Yes:
/configurable long scrollback buffer. /
Yes:
/Gravy g-t has I can live without if I must: rewraps long lines when window is resized. /
Yes, confirmed.
/Probably more things I can't immediately think of but use every day :-)/
KDE for the win?
