Public bug reported:

Description:    Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
Release:        20.04

Repo:

1. Open a new terminal and turn on menu bar
2. Turn off scrollback limit in Preferences
3. Run a command that produces a lot of output. For example, enable 'locate' 
command, and use it to produce thousands of lines with something like 'locate a'
4. Go to Edit, Select All

Result: terminal process will end and terminal disappears; seems to
crash on out of memory

Expected: Select All works, or, a popup with an error such as "Select
All requires 19 GiB, but memory is insufficient."

Note: I have VMWare installed; not sure if VMWare clipboard crashes, or
if it is the terminal.
