I do not believe that there is a lot of harm or inefficiency in that, since `xterm-mouse-mode' does nothing if window-system is non-nil. If you enable it through Custom, you get the "Mouse" in the modeline, even under X. I've only found it helpful to have "Mouse" in the mode-line so I know it has actually loaded. If it is removed, might it make sense to conditionally load xt-mouse in startup.el to ensure its always loaded when needed? `xterm-mouse-mode' has an autoload cookie. Sincerely, Luc.
