Linux is about choice and not being forced to use a limited set of 
tools. If rxvt works for you than that's fine - use it. don't knock the 
alternatives.
personally I like mintty and it has become my terminal of choice - even 
replacing the windows command prompt. the lack of tabs is no problem.
It is small fast (loading and usage) and simple. I don't think it needs 
a lot of extra's that a lot of software seems to come with these days

keep up the good work!!
