I still use plain old xterm (the terminal program), and it allows you to
override the TERM variable in a couple of ways.  There's a command-line
option, and there's the old X resource termName.  The newer terminal
programs have configuration menus for various things; do any of them set
it there?  If they don't, I would think it would be relatively easy to
add (and hopefully upstreams would accept such patches).
