Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

If I run gnome-terminal like this:

 cp ~/.bashrc ~/.bashrc-orig
 cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ~
 gnome-terminal --active --title "Default" --tab --title "Bash" -e "bash" --tab 
--title "Emacs" -e "emacs" --tab --title "NoRC" -e "bash --norc"

The third and fourth tabs show up named correctly, "Emacs" and "NoRC".

If I append "unset PS1" to the end of the .bashrc, it makes all the tabs
show up properly.  Of course, then I only get the default command line
prompts in the session.

The expected behavior (IMHO) is that if --title is explicitly set on the
command line, then it should be used preferentially to the prompt.

My use case is I start up gnome-terminal from ~/.xsession pre-seeded
with multiple tabs each running a different command, and I like to name
each tab to differentiate them.
