I agree.  I've found the C-z binding annoying.  When I forget
and type it while under X, my next action is usually a muttered
curse.  I'd rather C-z do nothing instead of iconifying the
window.  Iconification seems like the closest analog to the dumb
terminal suspend behavior but it hasn't proven to be as useful
in practice.  If C-z has to be bound to something when running
under a window system, 'shell' or 'terminal-emulator' are better
choices I think.
