--- Comment #1 from Egmont Koblinger <egm...@gmail.com> ---
xfce4-terminal and gnome-terminal uses the very same terminal emulation widget
(VTE), they must behave identically.
As far as VTE is concerned, see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vte/issues/60
and https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=731155.
It would be great to know how some popular hardware emulators behaved. Not sure
if this info can be found somewhere, e.g. on vt100.net. I'm almost sure they
behaved like VTE and Konsole do now.
Carefully reading ECMA-48 would possibly also provide the right answer for the
expected (documented) behavior.
C99 is not a reference for the behavior of terminal emulators.
In my opinion the current behavior makes no sense at all, I agree with you that
it'd be better if the character at the 80th position was removed. But you can't
just change the behavior against the standards and the assumptions of existing
software, this would result in potentially plenty of apps breaking.
