Bug#514153: gnome-terminal: Enable single-window mode (all new instances open in tabs)

[Jordi Gutiérrez Hermoso]

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.22.3-3
Severity: wishlist

I would like to be able to open all new instances of gnome-terminal
within the same window, in different tabs, something like Emacs-server
or single window mode in Firefox, in order to reduce desktop clutter.

Thanks.
