Title:
  --title flag has no effect

Status in LXDE - Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment:
  New
Status in lxterminal package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Run LXTerminal with the --title flag like so:

  $ lxterminal -t "My Title"

  Expected behaviour: an LXTerminal window opens with the title "My
  Title".

  Actual behaviour: an LXTerminal window opens with the default title
  (e.g. "user@machine").

  [drkokandy's note: OR perhaps, LXTerminal appears to open with its
  assigned title, but that quickly gets overwritten immediately back to
  user@host]

  This worked as expected until about 1-2 weeks ago. [Late October 2014]

  I saw the same behaviour before I upgrade today, with this package
  version:

  $ apt-cache policy lxterminal
  lxterminal:
    Installed: 0.1.12~bzr655+201410271939~ubuntu14.04.1

  I'm afraid I don't know the last version number where it did work as
  expected.
