Description Campbell Barton 2013-04-16 02:11:28 UTC 
In gnome terminal 3.6x, if my current tab was in "/home/foo/bar",
the shell created from a new tab would also be in "/home/foo/bar".

However now the $CWD is reset to the home directory, I checked for preferences regarding this functionality and there seems to be no way to get back the previous behavior.
