Looking for a replacement for Terminal from XFCE [SOLVED]

I'm looking for a terminal to replace Terminal from XFCE. The requirements are simple. It needs to be GTK2 based for full clipboard functionality and to not be ugly. There needs to be a right click menu to access copy/cut/paste. And I need to be able to toggle the file menu or access all functions from the mouse. LXTerminal comes very close to this except the file menu is just on and the new window launch keyboard shortcut doesn't work. I don't care either way about tabs, but a terminal launcher is necessary.

----> xterm, rxvt, and the derivatives that I've seen are either too ugly or too feature light. It's too bad because xterm is amazingly quick. <----

So why not just use Terminal? There are times when it seems like there are some runaway processes in the background and it starts to lag behind the mouse when moving. I don't know if this in fact Terminal, but I'll find out soon enough. It wouldn't be surprising though; Thunar was a major headache for me.
