This is somewhat intended, because now the default terminal emulator is
handled by xdg-terminal-exec
Perhaps we should provide an upgrade path so that users don't lose their
previous defaults?

Upgrade to Ubuntu 25.04 do not respect x-terminal-emulator settings

Bug description:
Hi guys. I don't think this bug is directly gnome-shell related, but I
have no clue how to report this bug to launchpad the other way.
I use non default terminal emulator (it's ghostty, but doesn't
matter).
In previous Ubuntu versions I just set x-terminal-emulator alternative
to ghostty, and Gnome correctly launched the one I needed with default
shortcut of Ctrl+Alt+t.
But after I upgraded my system to a 25.04 beta, Gnome 48 seems to
ignore this setting, and launches default Gnome Terminal when shortcut
is pressed. I suppose it's a bug, so would be nice if someone fixed
it.
