Ok, well I don't think this is sensible but I can see the logic behind
it. However, if the default is gnome-terminal and gnome-terminal has
*never* been installed (my test was initially with gnome-terminal
installed but then removed) then I think this is still a valid bug. I'll
be able to test this tonight on my mother's laptop :)
