Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

As reported by one of our users...

In Lucid, gnome-terminal doesn't support copying with smart Ctrl-C. This
is a functionality regression.

Hardy behavior:
- have text selected with the mouse => CRTL-C is "Copy"
- have no text selected with the mouse => CTRL-C is sent to terminal.

Lucid behavior:
- selection status doesn't make a difference. It's either/or. Since all the 
rest of the world uses CTRL-C to "Copy", it's pretty annoying to have to rewire 
my muscle memory to do something different.
