"There used to be" is a little too vague.
Have you used it just yesterday, and now its gone, or do you remember it
from 2002 ? And what version of gnome-terminal are you talking about ?

You haven't answered any of my questions, but you are halfway there.
After identifying the offending code, a bit of git blame will tell you
who and why.

Please lets be excellent to each other here and avoid the hostilities.

Matthias was helping you to discover why the change was made. He
obviously doesn't know himself, so he was directing you at the same
place he would look to find out why, which is the upstream source
control which can show you which specific commit changed that line that
you discovered, and you can find the changelog for that commit, which
should give a hint as to why it was done, which appears to be your
original question.

I filed a bug about it upstream. Seems like a regression from a refactoring
two years ago. We'll fix it.
