I haven't checked xterm (I'm using a version I've patched to avoid
the problem), but both rxvt and GNOME Terminal are still affected
by the window size issue and blank lines (for the blank lines, not
with the box-drawing characters as they have special code for that,
but this can be seen on multiline brackets, for instance).

With rxvt, this is even worse as this also affects the horizontal
size.

I've attached a screenshot concerning rxvt and multiline brackets.
