Hi,

I think that src/keymap.c in vte is to blame.  When hitting S-F2, xterm
sends "^[[1;2Q", while vte-based applications like gnome-terminal say
"^[O1;2Q".  So there is a difference of one character, but vte tries to
match xterm completely.  The bug is probably in
_vte_keymap_key_add_key_modifiers.

Markus, you could work around the bug by adding the following line to
your .vimrc:

    map! <Esc>O1;2Q <S-F2>
