The report has several problems. I'll list a few of them. vte would like to emulate xterm (it's incomplete). xterm emulates vt100, vt220, etc. Those are all 24x80. PC's have 25x80. But their emulation of vt100 is weak, with well-known differences. Terminator isn't relevant to the topic.

Agree: gnome-terminal has never emulated all of xterm's control sequences, and it is unlikely that it ever will. That's why there is a separate terminfo entry gnome to address its actual behavior. Set $TERM to gnome and report discrepancies there. For instance, the comment about gnome's bug
