Spoken by fortune@wall:

   DTR is most certainly a handshake signal, and just as valid a
   one as CTS.   

1. Read the standard
2. Find out how modems really work
3. Try to think about the global case, and not just the way YOU do things.

In a direct connect situation anything that works is correct, but please
don't push your own views upon others.
