Bug Description

gnome-terminal 2.22.1-0ubuntu2 in Hardy.

'gnome-terminal --class something' kills all running gnome-terminals.

I was using the --class option to be able to match on this window manager attribute
before Ubuntu 8.04 and it was working without any problems.

The bug is really inconvenient if you have open sessions, editors in the other windows.
