X11 resource to turn on visible-bell

I find the bell sound very annoying, adding (setq visible-bell t) to
.emacs gets rid of it nicely. 
But that does not work when running "emacs -q". 
It would be nice to have an X11 resource to use visible-bell. 
Xterm has a resource called "visualBell", Emacs could use the same
name. 

Would something like this be a good addition to Emacs?
