When setting the title of a terminal via the 'Terminal->Set title' menu entry, I
expect the title to be persistent.

Observed behaviour:

- Set the tab title via the 'Terminal->Set title' menu item.
- Tab title changes to what was entered
- Hit 'enter' in the shell in the tab
- Tab title changes back to 'user@hostname: /path'

Expected behaviour:

- Set the tab title via the 'Terminal->Set title' menu item.
- Tab title changes to what was entered
- Regardless of what I now do, other than changing the terminal title via the
menu item, the terminal tab title should be the same as I initially entered.

Workaround:

In the shell within the terminal tab do:

unset PROMPT_COMMAND

then re-enter the title via the 'Terminal->Set title' menu item.
