The problem with this is that it makes that "xterm" unlike any other
xterm.  If you delete *that* xterm, the entire X server stops.

I prefer instead:

        app1 &
        app2 &
        app3 &
        xterm & # for example
        exec quartz-wm

because when the wm stops... you probably don't want your Xserver any
more anyway. :)
