I'm marking this as Won't Fix in qemu as it doesn't seem like a good
idea for us to automatically resize the terminal for a user.
I'd suggest using a wrapper script if this is a desirable behavior for
you.

It should be fixed in the qemu package, rather than gnome-terminal
(by making it work with different screensizes).

You can use an ANSI sequence to resize a terminal. The following works
in gnome-terminal:
echo -en '\033[8;25;80t' qemu -curses ...
But it's somewhat impolite to resize a user's terminal automatically
though.

technically that's not ANSI (other than the form).
It's one of the dtterm (Sun) sequences that I implemented for xterm.
The security people don't much like it.
I was going to go ahead and just change the default, but then i tried
xterm and terminator and they both default to 24 rows too. Should we
consider changing other terminal emulators too?
Would you mind forwarding this upstream for discussion there too

upstream seem to thing that updating the termcap (the 'workaround' in my
earlier comment) is the correct fix and should be respected by both
xterm and terminator
i.e.,
/usr/share/vte/termcap/xterm
xterm-xfree86|xterm-new|xterm terminal emulator (XFree86):\
:am:km:mi:ms:xn:\

I've opened a vte task, marked it triaged/wishlist.
Hopefully someone familiar with that package can comment as to the
viability of the change. Thanks.

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.
