It is. emacs needs to send an escape sequence to xterm so that xterm
can start sending mouse tracking events. Nothing is doing it for the
"emacsclient -t" frame. Please check the code.

That's normal, you've turned it on (ie. the xterm-mouse-mode is set to
t) then you previously run M-x xterm-mouse-mode RET in the "emacs -Q
-nw" frame. 

Since you have an interest in this, do you want to take a stab at
getting this working correctly for multi-tty?
