Gnome Terminal Ignoring Select-by-word characters

[phisher1]

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

According to the the Gnome Terminal documentation at http://library.gnome.org/users/gnome-terminal/stable/gnome-terminal-prefs.html.en

Select-by-word characters
Use this text box to specify characters or groups of characters that GNOME Terminal considers to be words when you select text by word.

I currently have the default Select-by-word characters: -A-Za-z0-9,./?%&#:_=+@~

Before upgrade to 9.04, I could select the text before or after the a Select-by-word character, now it will select the entire "word", before and after the symbol, including the symbol.

Example:

<email address hidden>

On 8.10:
Action, double click the word "before" would select "words.before.at"
Action, double click the word "after" would select "words.after.at"

On 9.04:
Action, double click the word "before" selects "<email address hidden>"
Action, double click the word "after" selects "<email address hidden>"

Right, I've tested the same with Hardy and Intrepid they work fine, adding or removing the @ from the select-by word doesn't make any difference it always tries to open them, this is maybe a vte issue but not sure, let's forward it upstream better, thanks.
