Comment 8 for bug 1422626

Vte-3 definitely supports arbitrary widget size, the extra amount at the right and bottom will be blank.

I remember it used to suffer from drawing artifacts if the size was not properly aligned; I can't tell if these were fixed during the Vte-2 days or not.

Just my 2 cents: Konsole doesn't have grid based resizing and it drives me nuts. I think forcing the grid should be the default for a terminal and probably that's what most users would prefer. (If it's a configure option to change it then of course I'm totally okay with that.)
