VirtualBox Ubuntu xterm Guest <-> Host copy & paste

When copying and pasting between guest VB Ubuntu huest and my host Windows machine Xterm does not work well (other applications have no problem).
Instead, I choose Gnome terminal (/usr/bin/gnome-terminal), which I like more due to smooth Copy&Paste, clear deafult colors scheme and better integration with Ubuntu desktop ("New terminal" menu on docked icon instead of "mid-click" - go figure that out - way of opening a new window with Xterm).
