Tab names can't always be set via --title

Bug description:
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.
