Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
Open a gnome-terminal instance using en_US.UTF-8 encoding. Enter U+05D1
(you can do this by holding CTRL-SHIFT and typing the code), a Hebrew
letter bet. Hit backspace; it will disappear. Now enter U+05D1 U+05BC
(Hebrew letter bet with combining dagesh). The characters will not
combine correctly; there will appear to be a bet followed by a center-
dot. Hit backspace; the center-dot will vanish. Hit backspace again; the
bet will not vanish. Hitting enter reveals that the prompt was empty;
the character displayed was not actually entered.
Each combining dagesh appears to advance the cursor by one space which
cannot be backed up past, even though the shell appears to be unable to
see the stuck character.
