For me, Ubuntu's terminal is perfect.

Give me arrows, tab, Ctrl+(R/C/D/W) etc and its a great.

But I agree with the point that different systems have their own implementation which could lead to frustration.

I am working on set of servers only accessible through PAM and those admins don't allow anything. It gets so frustrating.

I feel a lot of the frustration also comes from shifting to unfamiliar environment. Like I work on those restricted servers and am cursing the admins, but when I switch to Ubuntu's terminal I am thanking the gods for liberation.
