Alt-arrows do not work in the second tab

[Alexey Kotlyarov]

Binary package hint: terminator

Alt-arrows for switching between split terminals do not work when I open the second terminal tab.
How to reproduce:
1. Open Terminator.
2. Ctrl-Shift-T to open a new tab.
3. Ctrl-Shift-O or Ctrl-Shift-E to split the active (second) tab.
4. Alt-Up or Alt-Left to go to the top or left (depending on step 3) split terminal.

Expected results:
Focus moves to the respective window.

Actual results:
Nothing happens.

When splitting the first tab, Alt-arrows work as expected.

This also affects Ctrl+Shift+N and Ctrl+Shift+P (go_next and go_prev).

Sorry to keep bouncing this bug around. It will definitely get fixed before 1.0. I just want to get 0.92 out ASAP to fix some annoying regressions.

There is something related to the last tab as this repro would show:
1) open terminator
2) open new tab (ctrl-shift-t)
3) split new tab (ctrl-shift-o)
3) navigate between terms (ctrl-shift-n): FAILS
4) open new tab
5) split new tab
6) navigate between terms: FAILS
7) Got to previous tab (ctrl-shit-PageUp)
8) navigate between terms: SUCCESS

So, a quick workaround would be to create a new tab to be able to use term navigation in previous ones.

some output from terminator when this happens:
$ terminator

Now when navigating the second tab with alt-arrows, Terminator crashes with "ValueError in navigate_terminal()".

Thanks chantra for the hint about it being the last tab. Fixed in trunk revision 992
