Looks like the only thing it doesn't do is let you change the title

Right. Unless you send an ^[^H]0;foo^G sequence (^[ being ESC) to your
xterm. You'll find that the title changes to "foo".
0 = both title and icon
1 = icon name
2 = titlebar text
Most X11 terminal emulators use the same protocol. (ISTR that dtterm
doesn't, but I don't think most people care any more.) One other
gotcha is that Terminal.app on Leopard (dunno about Tiger) treats 0,
1, 2 the same way so if you set the icon name after the title you end
up with the icon name in the titlebar. (OSX uses the titlebar text as
the icon name when minimized.)
