Yes, I think so.

You pushed to disable this feature, now you're trying to remove references to
it.  There seems little point in adding features if its hard for users to find
out about them.  How about:

    * On an xterm, Emacs provides a more convincing simulation of a text
      terminal by being unable to respond to mouse-clicks on the mode-line,
      header-line, or display margin.
