I agree that these options are far from ideal. Could you please share your entire (desired) use case / workflow? It's hard for me to imagine how you'd use these options.
Note that Ubuntu folks are extremely unlikely to create and maintain a patch for your feature request. gnome-terminal development is tracked in GNOME's bugzilla, this conversation should happen there. Could you please file a bug there? I'll likely comment on it, but I'm not the main developer to decide. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1661211 Title: open new tab doesn't work as intended To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/1661211/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
