Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

This is an upstream bug [
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=548600 ], but I wanted to
cross-post here, for possible inclusion before intrepid launch.

Description:
In earlier versions of gnome-terminal, there were individual options in the 
Edit->Keyboard shortcuts menu for "Switch to tab 1", "Switch to tab 2" etc. 
While these were enabled and bound to alt-1, alt-2, etc by default, it was 
possible to disable them, which was necessary for use of default key bindings 
in certain console applications, such as irssi, to switch channels/windows. The 
current version of gnome-terminal, however, has eliminated these [gconf] 
settings, and simply enables these keyboard accelerators automatically if there 
is more than one tab present.

While it wouldn't be as nice as providing the ability to configure or
disable custom keyboard accelerators for switching to tabs 1-10 (e.g.
letting the user specify "ctrl-alt"[1,2...] as the modifier or
something), I would still be much happier with the easier solution of at
least giving the user the option to disable the automatic keyboard
accelerators than I am with the current behavior.

Ubuntu 8.10
gnome-terminal 2.23.91-0ubuntu1
