I find terminal emulators on Linux to be woefully inadequate after getting used to iTerm2 on OS X. Can anyone recommend a Linux terminal emulator that even comes close in terms of features and performance?

I'm working on a new terminal which takes a few cues from iTerm2 and also adds other unique features. It is not up to production level quality like iTerm2 but you are more than welcome to try it out.
