I'd like to revert this to a bug. Make it a wishlist one, if appropriate. The thing is this: I, as a knowledgeable user (blablabla), have expected things in any OS to 'just work', be 'intuitive', or otherwise being a (usability) bug. I've known some OSes in which there were a lot of usability bugs, but in linux, these bugs are generally accepted as a bug.
To the point: hovering over a link underlines the link, changes the cursor and generally suggests that you can do something with it. Left-clicking does nothing _at all_, not even copying the address. Just _nothing_. That is a usability bug, if I've ever seen one. I've read the gnome terminal manual and confirm that this is not a bug in Ubuntu per se, but in the upstream package. Nevertheless, making the default action to just open the link (which is the first selection in the context menu) would make many people happy, I guess.
