Bug#712127: gnome-terminal doesn't remember open tabs from previous session

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 3.8.3-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

after the latest updates to Gnome, gnome-terminal is not any longer
automatically started on logging in. Moreover, between sessions the open tabs
are lost. While I could login to a new session before, with gnome-terminal
opening all previously open tabs with a shell in the previously opened
directory, now I have to manually start gnome-terminal after login, re-open all
tabs I need, and change to the respective directory in each tab.

Formerly, I used gnome-terminal as a kind of to-do-list: work on a LaTeX-
document in this tab/dir, play around with some utility in another, keep open
some not so urgent work in still another ... Is it possible to restore this
convenient behavior?
