This program is a test application for testing the actual terminal
emulation only.  If you wish to see gnome-terminal getting this feature
(beware, it's a bit hairy, don't break your system, make a backup,
blahblahblah, standard disclaimer, and if anything goes wrong and gnome-
terminal doesn't start up, just open an xterm to fix things)...

You can either:

- Upgrade to Trusty (with Saucy the story is more complicated: there's
another patch you'd have to apply), download vte-0.34.9 (the exact vte
version that's shipped by Ubuntu Trusty), manually figure out how to
apply the patch (it doesn't apply automatically, requires C coding
knowledge), run ./configure --prefix=/usr
--libexecdir=/usr/lib/libvte-2.90-9; make; sudo make install; and then
quit all instances of gnome-terminal and restart it

Or (this is the one I'd recommend, it'll give you a much newer gnome-
terminal):

- Take vte-0.37.2, run configure with the same flags as above, make,
sudo make install (note: your old vte and vte-0.37 will co-exist on your
system and your gnome-terminal will still use the old version), and then
download gnome-terminal-3.13.2, ./configure --enable-distro-packaging
--prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib/gnome-terminal; make; sudo make
install; quit all gnome-terminal instances. In case anything goes wrong,
re-install the gnome-terminal and gnome-terminal-data Ubuntu packages.

Or (the lazy approach):

- Wait for Ubuntu V.V. (15.04) that will hopefully ship this feature.
