xfce4-terminal is a Debian package, it's just not in stable or testing.
But go to http://packages.debian.org, 'search package directories',
enter 'xfce4-terminal', select 'distribution: any', and you'll find it.

I read that they are writing a new xfce file manager, but it's only up
to 0.0.2 or something like that, so I don't expect that one to be fully
functional in the near future. I use the gnome stuff, so I'm afraid I
cannot help you out here.
