I think it has been posted many times, that you can do what you want by
creating a custom .xinitrc file in your home directory --- from a
terminal,
get a generic one; e.g.
cp /private/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ~/.xinitrc
You will need to change the permissions on that one to edit it:
chmod 644 ~/.xinitrc
Then open this .xinitrc with a text editor, change from XFree86's
default window manager
(twm) to Apple X11's (quartz-wm) by replacing the line
twm & by the line quartzwm &
and then edit the following lines that start some x applications to
suit your
fancies.

If all you want to do is start X11.app without that xterm...
I've been wondering about this too. I'd like it to start an xterm, but
one with some command line options. As it is now, I have to exit the
default one and start my own so it has scrollback and other useful
things.
I'd rather not mangle xterm itself by renaming just to get around
this. It may be a laptop, but it is still not a single user machine.
