Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:
1. Have Ubuntu MATE 21.04 installed (or use Live session)
2. Launch MATE Terminal
3. Enable infinite history (Edit - Profile Preferences - Scrolling, Scrollback 
- Unlimited)
4. Execute command with long output such as `journalctl | cat`
5. Select Edit - Select All (or press <Shift>+<Ctrl>+<A>), then Edit - Copy (or 
press <Shift>+<Ctrl>+<C>)
6. Open Pluma text editor and paste just copied terminal output

Expected results:
* whole terminal output is copied - staring by `user@host:~$ journalctl | cat` 
and ending by `user@host:~$`

Actual results:
* only last 15 lines were copied (depends on terminal size)
