I am all for removing extaconfigruable options as you already know. But
i think that in this case this different for a number of reasons.

- gnome terminal is not an end user application
- the benefit if the 95% is small compared to the harm of the 5%.
- who is going to go into the preference dialog of gnome-terminal if it
"just works", i mean, the only thing the user may want to change is the
colors AFAIK. other than the colors, he does not have a need to change
anything.
