I'm just piping in here to say that the issue is based on how the login(1) program is called during the authorization process. This is beyond the scope of gui terminals and is even once more removed from the shell.

I've outlined a more in depth answer here: https://askubuntu.com/a/1278257/879293

Also, I've provided a bash function that you can add to your .profile (assuming you use 'login shell' for your terminals) that will give you something like the behavior that you (and me as well) were seeking relative to this thread.

Best regards.
