yes - they're documented (in rxvt's source, there's a doc or docs 
directory containing the file).  I added some comments to terminfo.src in 
ncurses which covers much of that:

ftp://invisible-island.net/ncurses/terminfo.src.gz

Similarly, for xterm, the modifier encoding is documented in ctlseqs.ms (a 
corresponding ".txt" file is in my ftp area).  Again, there's some 
coverage of it in terminfo.src
