Bug Description
This is reproducible ~90% of the time. Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Terminal.
2. 'cd' to some folder.
3. Open a second tab and 'cd' to some other folder.
4. Close Terminal.
5. Reboot.
6. Open Terminal and select the first tab.
7. The "current line/path" will be displayed with characters in wrong positions.
Please see the attached image and note the first few characters. If any key is pressed after that (e.g.: down arrow), the line text turns normal.
