I like the idea, but please omit the `visible-bell' setting -- that
seems unrelated.

BTW, another nice option for testing would be something to suppress the
use of x-resource; doing `xrdb -remove' works but then I've got to put
them back aftwards, and that won't help for ~/.X<whatever-the-file-is-called>
which is read directly instead of through the server.
