Yes, I think this is enough detail.

I only enable xterm-mouse-mode in an xterm:
(if (eq window-system 'nil)
(if (string= "xterm" (getenv "TERM"))
(progn
(xterm-mouse-mode 1)
(load-library "t-mouse")
(t-mouse-mode 1))
...
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?
