[Bug 868000] [NEW] Fix for #821290 broke M-f/M-b behaviour in gnome-terminal without menubar

 

Public bug reported:

The fix for #821290 broke M-f/M-b (that is 'Alt + f' and 'Alt + b')
behaviour in gnome-terminal instances running with the menu bar
hidden.

If I install libgtk-3-0_3.2.0-0ubuntu1_i386.deb and run
gnome-terminal, M-f acts as forward-word and M-b acts as
backwards-word in bash or zsh instances.

If I upgrade to libgtk-3-0_3.2.0-0ubuntu2_i386.deb, M-f or M-b both
just bring up the menu bar prompt, even though my gnome-terminal is
configured to run with 'Show menu bar' turned off.

This is a regression from natty and breaks the brain of emacs users
like me who have these keys hardwired into their muscle memory.
