Description of problem: See upstream bug: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138609 When reaching the last or first tab in a gnome-terminal using Ctrl+PageUp/Down, ~5 gets printed on the terminal. I am of the opinion that those keypresses should only be passed to the terminal if there's no other tabs. If the key combination is needed for a particular application, either no tabs should be used, or the keyboard shortcut should be changed in the Edit->Keyboard shortcuts dialogue. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-terminal-2.7.3-1
Hi Bastien, I agree. Conditionally sending the key presses to vte depending on what tab the user is on seems pretty broken. If there are tabs then gnome-terminal should just swallow the key presses even if it doesn't use them. You want to work on fixing this?
Patch pushed to the upstream bug. Ray, could you comment on this patch?
