other modern terminal?
None of those are "modern" in the sense that you'd like to imply.
I think that was a bad choice of word. By "modern", I meant "actively
maintained at present".
In that case, gnome-terminal is debatable (it's being changed, but not
maintained except in the loosest sense of the term).
In either case, gnome-terminal and konsole haven't changed that part of
the design for a decade.
