Copying a line with full-width character at end adds a space

[Misaki]

If a full-width character, such as a Chinese character, starts at the last column of a line, it is moved to the start of the next line. The last column is then displayed as being empty. However, if that line is selected using the mouse and copied using shift-ctrl-C, or simply using middle-click paste, a space is added to the line at that location.

A common place where this can occur is in filenames.

I assume this is a bug in gnome-terminal, and not bash, but I'm not entirely sure.
